Corporate law

* Repeat Offenders: Repeated crimes are when someone is released for a crime and then commits the same crime again within the same shift. Repeated crimes can be charged with additional time. Every repeat adds 5 minutes. If the suspect has been jailed for over 40 minutes across sentences they can be sentenced to permanent confinement at HoS' or Warden's discretion.

* Absence of Intent: Criminals who committed their crime unintentionally may have their sentence reduced at the sentencing officer's discretion.

* Disclosure and Surrender: Criminals who fully cooperate with the investigation should have their sentence reduced at the sentencing officer's discretion. This includes turning in evidence, turning in accomplices, or recounting the crime in detail.

Prisoners are permitted to seek legal representation to challenge charges. Petty sentences, that is sentences totaling less than 10 minutes of prison time, are below the interest of the court and should not be brought to trial unless directly requested by the Magistrate.

This can be charged on top of other charges such as Murder or Assault if the suspect committed these crimes to obtain the parts consumed. Consumption of blood is not considered cannibalism, but if the source is non-consensual or stolen it may be assault or theft.

Those who commit a capital crime should be detained in permanent confinement at minimum. If a capital criminal escapes they are to be executed and transported to CC in a body bag at the end of shift. Emergency executions may be enacted by Captain or the Head of Security with at least 3 other Command as witnesses, but must be reported directly to Central Command afterwards for review.
