Regalian Law

Regalian Law is a set of so called Law Books with a penal code designed to keep the Regalian public in line, both within the confines of a peaceful and stable society, but also for a clean and pious mind. These Laws don't always have a strict outcome punishment, and punishments may vary between Guard Charters and Organizations in Regalia. Generally speaking however, Capital Punishment is reserved only for Capital Crimes, and serious repeat offence of some of the more serious crimes as defined by the Law Books. Furthermore, most of these laws are changeable by the respective authorities. The Judicial Minister or whatever legal representative the Noble Assembly appoints to govern the laws of the land may freely alter the laws of the State. Synodical laws are reserved for the Synod only, and may be changed only by the Synod, though also don't have any civil prosecution status and usually relies on the inquisition to be enforced. Finally, Capital Law falls outside of the rights of the Judicial Minister or any such legal representative, these laws are only set by the Imperial Legate, which is an appendage of the Kade Lordly Council of the State.
