This law is one of punishment; therefore, the actions against offenders will be applied after guilt is determined. (As defined in their respective laws.) Crimes and their punishments are divided into four categories based on the severity of the crime. The punishments for these categories and the warning requirements are set forth below. In the case of multiple crimes, the more severe punishment should be applied. In the case of the multiple crimes falling in the same category, it is up to the officials whether or not to punish to the next highest degree. Some exceptions may apply which will be noted here or in another law. I) Infractions Infractions are minor in nature and punishment is light. -Board abuse (of a type not falling under a more severe category; i.e. posting on a wrong board) -Non-malicious impersonation of an official (wearing of the uniform while not in office) First offense: a warning will be directed at the offender. (In the case of Board abuse, the warning will be posted.) Second offense (within an eight-day): the offender will receive a verbal or posted warning. (In the case of board abuse, continued infractions will be noted and a letter of warning sent to the offender stating that future offenses will be considered grounds for banishment.) Third or subsequent offenses: the offender will be banished from Mileth. II) Misdemeanors Misdemeanors are regular and common misdeeds. -Begging -Profanity -Non-sexual harassment/slander or intimidation of aislings -Heresy (when someone is to be exiled for 40 days for heresy related crimes, the punishment shall be increased to 1 Deoch exile as per the heresy law) -Harassment of mundanes -Violation of Mundane Law's not listed ((TOS)) -Improper campaigning -Offensive portraits First offense: a warning will be directed at the offender verbally and one posted for the record, if the aisling ceases his actions. Further warnings are courtesy, not required. Second offense (within a moon): banishment. Third offense: forty-day exile. ((5 days)) Fourth offense: eighty-day exile. ((10 days)) Fifth offense: permanent exile (open for review one Deoch after the exile was carried out).
