Higher SL are harder to convict, -1 to die roll for every 3 SL above 6

Higher Orders also receive preferential treatment, Dominicans, Jesuits, and Benedictines subtract 1 from the die roll.

Judges from the same order as the accused will vote with a -1 on the die roll

If fine cannot be paid then the accused may go on a mission or do extra duty till the fine is paid

+1/-1 per witness for defence or prosecution , max 2 per side
