About the Liberty State Judiciary

The Liberty State Judiciary consists of various courts, each with a different jurisdiction. The role of the State Judiciary is to preside over civil and criminal suits, deliberating over cases and delivering verdicts. The judiciary is the branch of government that decides when laws have been broken (breached) based on evidence presented in court cases and on what the penalty or remedy is to be for the particular breach of the law.
