The '''Capital Court''' was a [[Forerunner]] [[ecumene]] judicial institution located at the [[Capital]]. The Court was noted to be a place of great ceremony and ritual. The Court met in the [[Ecumene Council]] amphitheater. The [[Councilor (Forerunner)|councilors]] of the ecumene participated in the Court as a [[Wikipedia:Jury|jury]] of sorts. The Court consisted of a panel of six judges led by the [[First Observer of the Court]], who also served as the [[First Councilor]] of the ecumene. The Court's judges sat in the center of the Council amphitheater on a platform risen fifty meters above the ground, protected by a detail of [[monitor]]s, [[Sentinel]]s, and [[Council security]].
