What?!  An Explanation of Common, Confusing Judicial Jargon
... and other juicy tidbits ...

Judicial Sanctions & Their Meanings
Often the adjudicator will assign multiple sanctions in response to an “in violation” decision, but what are these sanctions and what do they mean?  Follow this link to view an explanation of sanctions and terms.  Also, the Ladder of Disciplinary Sanctioning may help you understand the levels of sanctions.

Hearing Information
If you are going to be involved in a hearing, then it is a good idea for you to become familiar with what type of hearing you are involved in and what that means.  We have provided an explanation of the types of hearings held and the differences between each.

Overview of Judicial
There is an order in which the judicial system works.  This diagram may help you to understand the process that brings you from the alleged behavior violation to the end.
