Active Warrants
Warrants identify wanted characters and remain part of the Justice record until cancelled, served, or otherwise resolved through authorized roleplay.
Laws & Justice
Trenchport's fictional Justice system connects police, courts, corrections, bail, bonds, fines, community service, warrants, and permanent character records through the HUD and in-world terminals.
Roleplay Law, Not Real Legal Advice
Everything on this page describes the fictional Trenchport in-world legal and Justice system. It is a roleplay framework and is not a statement of real Alabama law.
Authorized staff enter charges, sentences, bail, fines, service requirements, notes, and release information into permanent Justice cases. Exact charge definitions and penalties remain subject to the current official law reference and staff rulings.
Permanent Case Records
Booking creates a permanent Justice case tied to the character's Second Life UUID. A case may store the visible Apex case number, charges, sentence, custody time, bail, fines, bond activity, community service, officers, notes, and final release classification.
- Correcting a visible case number does not replace the permanent internal Case ID.
- Previous case numbers remain searchable.
- Authorized changes may be recorded in the Justice audit history.
Warrants, Booking, and Custody
Booking
Authorized officers create cases, record charges, set sentence information, and document the arrest or custody scene.
Custody Time
Sentences are measured from the original booking time. Reaching the sentence end may move the case to an awaiting-release state.
Final Release
An authorized officer or corrections staff member processes the final release when required.
Release Classifications
Time ServedParoleBail ReleaseBond ReleaseForce Release
A release classification records how custody ended. Release does not erase the permanent case or its financial and service history.
Bail, Bonds, and Fines
Cash Bail
Eligible players may pay their saved cash-bail balance. Full payment moves the case toward release but does not automatically complete the officer release process.
Bail Bonds
Eligible cases may request a bondsman. The process can include a request, claim, posted bond, bond fee, and remaining fee balance.
Fines
Fines are separate from bail and bond fees. Paying a fine does not automatically shorten a sentence or release the player.
Financial Records
Approved payments are stored with the case so criminal financial consequences can remain part of the character's history.
Community Service
Community service is completed at approved in-world service nodes. The player must remain near the active node for time to count.
- Service is separate from jail time.
- Completion updates the permanent case record.
- Completion does not automatically clear unpaid bail, fines, or bond fees.
- Completion does not automatically release the player from custody.
Player and Staff Access
Players can review their own active Justice information and stored notices through the HUD. Authorized police, corrections, judges, lawyers, bondsmen, supervisors, mobile-record users, and service nodes have separate permissions and tools.
Case number, charges, status, sentence remaining, bail, fine balance, bond status, service progress, and private notices.
