Members of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood -

The Chamber of Justice has convened in seven matters, having brought charges against members and completed the process of adjudication for each case. The Chamber has issued detailed verdicts and Justicar Opinions for each case which can be found in the PDF files linked below. The primary opinion, which was incorporated by reference into other opinions due to overlapping issues, is the DB v. Delak Krennel opinion. I direct you attention to that opinion first. Please note that the written opinion is generally found on the second page of the following documents, after announcement of the verdict.

The cases and verdicts are summarized as follows:

Case # 43 - DB v. Rayna Krennel - Opinion PDF

  • Count 1 - Cheating - GUILTY by plea
  • Punishment - Two-grade Demotion, LoR, Strict Probation



Justicar's Opinion

Facts:

On January 10 and 23, 2015, Dark Jedi Knight Delak Krennel and Protector Rayna Krennel submitted identical submissions to the Round 1 Puzzle Event in the Eleventh Great Jedi War. The Seneschal coded the event so that no two puzzles for members were identical. As a result, no two members could have the same answer, and the Seneschal flagged the submissions. As punishment for these submissions, and violating the spirit of competition, the Defendant was initially punished through a disqualification from the event. Thereafter, the Chamber of Justice conducted an investigation and, upon due consideration, decided to issue charges.

Opinion:

As to the general principles of Covenant interpretation and Chamber policies, the Opinion set forth in DB vs. Delak Krennel, Case #0042, is incorporated by reference. As an additional point, I note that the veracity of the statements of the Defendant left much to be desired. She claimed that she was completely at fault for the incident, taking the fall for her husband. While that is to be admired, the holes in their combined stories could not be ignored.

I do hope that this is a bump in the road for this member and that Rayna Krennel will become a productive and long-lasting member of the Brotherhood. While the punishment is justified and necessary, the Chamber asks that the Defendant’s peers join me in forgiving her for the violations of the Covenant and seek to bring her further into the fold of active membership.

Signed and sealed in Justice,
Jac Ae-Sequiera Cotelin
Justicar and High Protector of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood
