Arcerion has multiple level of courts that regulate crime, punishment, and regulatory functions as mandated by legislation. The first of these is the individual county courts, both civil and criminal. These are superseded by larger courts, usually the Governorate's individual Supreme Courts. The Supreme Court of Arcerion is the third branch of the federal government (along with the Executive and Legislative), and is composed of 12 Justices, each of whom is nominated by the Prime Minister when there is a vacancy, and confirmed via the Senate's Crown-in-Absentia powers. | |||
