Case Summary

This case stemmed from the Brotherhood's involvement in Star Wars Galaxies (SWG) through the Dark Brotherhood Player's Association(DBPA). The Justicar received several complaints that property which had been donated to the DBPA was missing. The Chamber of Justice launched an investigation and concluded that the missing property had been located in a "Guild Hall" which had been packed up and taken by Raidoner. The Chamber of Justice then proceeded to charge Raidoner for using his administrative access to steal DBPA property, which - as established in 006 DB vs. Gilkane - is considered theft from the Brotherhood itself. The trial was in the plea-phase when the Grand Master announced that the Player's Association had been dissolved. The Chamber discussed the issue and determined the case should be dropped, because the Chamber no longer had jurisdiction over SWG matters since the dissolution of DBPA. However, the Chamber agreed that Raidoner actions had been inappropriate, and therefore he was issued an Official Letter of Reprimand.
