  7.2 Principles of Law  
  Article 225-Culpability  
  Canon 2776  
  Culpability is the proven Fact of having committed an Offence in accordance with the statutes of a Juridic Person by lawful process.  
  Canon 2777  
  Culpability is one of only two permitted resolutions of valid Verdict, with the other being Innocence. Culpability is therefore to be justly liable to penalty.  
  Canon 2778  
  Culpability is not equivalent to Guilt as Guilt implies an acceptance and consent to an immoral act, whereas Culpability is a decision made by either a judge or jury in the course of a Trial.  
  Canon 2779  
  A person found lawfully Culpable is not permitted to receive the choice of Absolution. Instead, it is deemed they have chosen the punishment of Penitence as defined by any statutes promulgated consistent with these canons.
