Terrans who collaborated with the Usurper were tried by the Special Court for Renewal (SCR) quickly setup by the Last Cameron following the Liberation. Cases were to be heard as swiftly as possible by Tribunals established specifically for the propose of renewing order in the devastated Hegemony hence their name. Developed by SLDF JAG officer Solomon Tracy for criminal acts of association with Amaris during the Occupation for which there was no statue of limitations. If the accused was convicted they were placed into a three tiered system which classified and punished them according to their level of complicity.
The lowest level was known as an Accessory who had been peripherally involved with the Emperor in some fashion. These most common offenders received time-based sentences which varied in severity for their transgressions and could eventually be worked off. This usually took the form of some sort of forced labor to help rebuild the battered Hegemony as fast as possible. An Abettor who actively encouraged, supported, provided aid or public approval to the Usurper during his reign faced Exile. While an Accomplice who knowingly helped Amaris, often as a subordinate in his regime, faced Death.
All the convicted, even the condemned, had to wear the dreaded ‘Mark of Amaris’ on their bodies as dictated by the Court. While Accessories could have this crimson ‘A’ placed on different area which could possibly be concealed and even removed one day Abettors and Accomplices had it far worse. Their mark was placed directly on their forehead where it could be easily identified for the rest of their days. While the Courts did follow Star League law and Terran jurisprudence appeals were not allowed which critics have widely panned. This rush to judgement was done with a swift finality in order to restore civil society and establish justice for unprecedented crimes against humanity.
