After [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Amalea Petrov]] was left stranded on the desolate world of [[Netherop]] by the "[[Castoffs]]" in [[2526]], the Judge Advocate General's Corps opened a court of inquiry to investigate. [[Lieutenant]] [[J. Stone]] represented the interests of Petrov, while Lieutenant Commander [[B. Nett]] represented the young Castoffs who claimed that Petrov chose to be left behind on Netherop. The inequality in the ranks of the two JAG officers indicated that now-[[Vice Admiral]] Cole had intentionally favored the Castoffs over Petrov. Ultimately, the court of inquiry was closed in favor of the Castoffs.<ref name="oblivion ep">''[[Halo: Oblivion]]'', Epilogue</ref>
