More in depth interpretations of space law are required for such positions as the Lawyer, Warden, HoP, and the HoS. While it is unlikely that the officers will listen particularly closely to your protestations, it may be enough to lighten your sentence and avoid ill treatment by security.		A good working knowledge of Space Law is important for any person on the station. It can be the difference between a shiny pair of handcuffs and sipping Gargle Blasters in the bar.

	For certain crimes, the accused's intent is important. The difference between ~~Assault~~ and ~~Attempted~~ Murder can be very hard to ascertain, and, when in doubt, you should default to the less serious crime.

You cannot be charged with Assault and ~~Attempted Murder~~ from the same crime as the intent of each is different~~. Likewise, 'Assault With a Deadly Weapon' and 'Assaulting an Officer' are also crimes that exclude others~~. Pay careful attention to the requirements of each law and select the one that best fits the crime when deciding sentence.		For certain crimes, the accused's intent is important.
