Rule changes
  • A player charged with a crime is not obligated to hire a lawyer nor show up to their court hearing. In this scenario, they must complete their jail time to its entirety and be sentenced guilty by a Judge.
  • If the charged player with a pending court hearing fulfills their prison time to its entirety without showing up to court, a Judge must sentence them guilty, so the offense is added to their criminal record.
