- Raised By: Chainbreaker Snark
- Judgement: Sanction:Penance. Jarrigk Orzel has worked well in making trade and relations flourish and still says that his contact with the Asaveans has not shaken his faith. I call upon the Orzel noble to look to the Pride of his house and "prove it". Take a congregation and denounce the Asavean gods.
- Outcome: Upheld (467 - 463)
Judgement 41
- Assembly: Nine
- Raised By: Hywel Summercrow

Judgement 42
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Vindictus
- Judgement: Inquisition. Virtue Inquisitor of Vigilance requests Volfe Stormchaser for Inquisition for a lack of Penance adherence. Saturday, five in the afternoon, Ashen Hall.
- Outcome: Upheld (674 - 10).
Judgement 45
- Assembly: Prosperity
- Raised By: Titus i Erigo
- Judgement: Inquisition. The Prosperity assembly called Heilyn of Bronwen's Rest to inquisition regarding the increased prosperity drawn from the limited funds bequeathed to them. The inquisition will take place at the hub at four in the afternoon.
- Outcome: Upheld (138 - 0).
Judgement 46
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Medea Ruth
- Judgement: Inquisition. Medea Ruth was found to be under an aura of the false virtue of Hatred. Whilst under this aura, I preached Hatred, blasphemy, and acted objectionably to Imperial Orcs and their sympathisers. Inquisition five in the afternoon Saturday.
- Outcome: Upheld (533 - 215).
Judgement 47
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Veikko Bondforger
- Judgement: Inquisition. I summon Qusay i Kalamar i Guerra to Inquisition at the Hub at three in the afternoon on the Saturday of the Summer Solstice 383YE regarding his involvement with the Iron Quanat, Lorenzo's Great Game, and the Spiral Sword runeforge, all works of the idolater Almodin Oktístis.

Judgement 58
- Assembly: Pride
- Raised By: Rane Sherarding
- Judgement: Sanction: Penance. Escalation of Judgement 61, Winter 382. "The virtuous apply what they have learned" only for this do I not seek harsher sanction. Franco i Erigo declined to enact his mandate as new knowledge reached him. This was Wisdom. While the Synod must change and adapt to knowledge, and priests not be unduly punished for acting in virtue, the vote of the Synod was still overruled. The Synod must be vigilant in its approach to foreigners and Foreign Affairs. I send Franco to collect a story from each Imperial Ambassador, whatever tale they choose of Vigilance in their work so he may learn. These must be written, with a foreword of explanation and lessons learnt by Franco, and by the end of Spring 384 place as a book in the Library, or in my hand for appropriate distribution, or with the Inquisitor of Pride in my absence. The cooperation of the Ambassadors is Franco's responsibility I cannot and do not compel them. If the like of this happens again I would press for harsh judgements.
- Outcome: Upheld (265 - 10).

- Outcome: Upheld (533 - 0).
Judgement 83
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Solas
- Judgement: Sanction: Condemnation. We condemn Medea Ruth of Irremais Spire for abuse of powers; no individual should be able to write themselves a vindication, thus no priest should raise a judgement of inquisition against themselves.
- Outcome: Upheld (862 - 184).
Judgement 86
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Medea Ruth
- Judgement: Sanction: Condemnation. Following inquisition, Medea Ruth is found to have committed a religious crime of heresy.

- Outcome: Automatically Upheld.
Judgement 109
- Assembly: Pride
- Raised By: Lev Unbound

- Raised By: Yarona of the Chantry
- Judgement: Sanction: Vindication. Following thorough and probing inquisition by Yarona of the Chantry, we the Highborn assembly call for the vindication of Tolamy regarding his actions in saving the injured at Atheneum Spire, Morrow. His actions were illegal, and he has been tried and convicted accordingly. This inquisition was concerned not with legality, but with Virtue. We find him to have acted courageously when face with Great Peril and an impossible decision. We find him to have shown unwavering Loyalty in refusing to abandon his patients. We believe that not only did Tolamy's actions preserve life, they also safeguarded vulnerable souls from Druj interference. Yarona will offer Tolamy the testimony "steadfast guardian".
- Outcome: Upheld (411 - 0).
Judgement 113
- Assembly: Dawn National

Rewarding
The following judgements of rewarding were proposed during the Spring Equinox.

- Assembly: General Assembly
- Raised By: Solas

- Outcome: Automatically upheld; 7 Thrones provided by the Tribune.
Judgement 13
- Assembly: General Assembly
- Raised By: Genoveva Barossa di Tassato
- Judgement: The loyalty of the Generals Barossa in creating and executing the strategy which prevented Morrow from being over-run by the Druj has been recognised by the Synod (Judgement 41 Winter 383) and the commission of a School of War has been proposed by Nares of Urizen in gratitude for their work. We wish to celebrate these virtuous acts by rewarding General Gabriel Barossa with 30 Thrones from the virtue fund on behalf of myself and General Natalia Barossa in order that one of the options presented by Nares may be built.
- Outcome: Upheld (721 - 290). 30 Thrones provided by the Tribune.
Judgement 17
- Assembly: General Assembly
- Raised By: Chauntecleeer Words
- Judgement: Further to the successful Judgement 7 last summit, a further 40 Thrones is sought by Chauntecleer to purchase the remaining materials reqired to construct a brokerage for the purposes of establishing a supply of liao to Surrani followers of the Way. We believe we should be seeing to ai them, reiforce their faith, and bring Salvation to others in the Confederacy. However, we are not blind to the political situation with our neighbours, and have already made a commitment to the Throne not to attempt to commission this work through the Senate without their approval. We would however suggest that were the brokerages to be built now, an the appointment of their overseer be via the Throne then their functioning could still await the Throne's discetion - but allow for their immediate utilisation without the elay from construction; should the situation with our neighbours change; for better or worse. Although not currently illegal to operate these facilities, we acknowleddge the spirit of te treaty and the inflammatory possibility of flaunting it. We counsel to be patient, but not to forget.
- Outcome: Not Upheld (216 - 485).

- Outcome: Upheld (928 - 108). 22 Thrones provided by the Tribune.

- Judgement: I would like it to be recognised how Abbott Thomas has shown his commitment to the virtues and how he has not used the Singing Caves for his own use and used it for the Marchers to enlarge the Drakes and the better of the Marches and upheld a deal with the orcs. I wish we can reward him with 4 Crowns.
- Outcome: Upheld (409 - 92). 4 Crowns provided by the Tribune.
