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.
