III. Punishment A. The maximum punishments for those guilty of crimes are listed in the Criminal Code and Officer Act (Criminal Misconduct & Punishment section). Guard Captains and Judges may determine their own punishments on a case by case basis as long as they do not exceed the maximum punishment defined by law. There are five types of punishment: Warning, Banishment, Exile, Sgath and Barment 1. Warning May be ordered and/or issued by a Guard, Guard Captain or Judge. 2. Banishment May be ordered and/or enacted by a Guard, Guard Captain or Judge. 3. Exile i. Terms of one Deoch or less: may be ordered by a Guard Captain or Judge and enacted by a Demagogue or Burgess. ii. Terms exceeding one Deoch: may be ordered by a Judge and enacted by a Demagogue or Burgess. iii. Exiles may be forgiven by a Demagogue or Burgess after the term of an exile has expired. No order is needed from a judicial officer. 4. Sgath May be ordered by a Judge and enacted by any combination of Mileth officials. 5. Barment May be ordered by a Judge and enacted by a Burgess. [Note: A barment is considered in effect from the date of the barment order being issued or after an accompany exile term has been served, regardless if the Aisling is physically barred by a Burgess or not.] Physical barments may be forgiven by Burgess after the term of barment has expired. No order is needed from a judicial officer. B. If a punishment, or desired punishment, exceeds a judicial officer's authority to order they must forward their case to a superior officer with authority to order the punishment. C. If an Aisling is deemed guilty of multiple crimes concurrently the total punishment depends on the crimes committed and which has the highest initial punishment. The crime that carries the highest initial punishment is the starting point. For every additional crime the punishment is increased by one level as follows: 1. Warning 2. Banishment 3. 4 Moon Exile 4. 8 Moon Exile 5. 1 Deoch Exile 6. 16 Moon Exile 7. 20 Moon Exile 8. 2 Deoch Exile* ((1 Moon = 3.5 Days; 1 Deoch = 45 Days)) Cases of currently exiled Aislings who commit any additional crimes shall still follow the above procedures. Crimes are to be reevaluated using the above and the length of exile may be adjusted accordingly. * - The Mundane Mandate forbids the exiling of Aislings for terms exceeding two Deochs for a single offense; however, in instances of multiple crimes where the highest initial punishment is 2 Deochs are committed, exile terms beyond two Deochs are permitted.
