The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) stands as the bedrock of the criminal justice system across all Star Fleet facilities and installations.

Commanders are given significant roles in the military justice system because discipline is essential to mission readiness.

Likewise, the UCMJ responsible for providing judges and lawyers to conduct trials in order to determine the guilt or innocence of the accused. Thus, after the Star Fleet Security and Investigation Service (SFSECIS) has taken a subject into custody, it is the responsibility of SFJAG to determine if the charges have merit, set a bond, provide for both the prosecution and defense, and then assign whatever discipline is warranted.
