Ch VII Suits — their Sorts &c
§.3. Non-penal & penal.

1. (a.)
Art 1. Suit non penal
has not for it's object the
producing on Defendant's
part, suffering other than
that inseparable from
the obligation of rendering
the Service demanded:
that Service not
consisting in the suffering
for the purpose of punishment:
Suit penal has for it's
object the producing the
Service rendered by
suffering punishment.

2
Art 2. Suit when penal,
is either purely public
or publico-private: purely
public where, no wrong
being done to one individual
more than another,
none has need of the
service rendered by compensation satisfaction
for special wrong:
publico-private, where
wrong having been done
to an individual, or
to a class less than the
whole community.
Service by compensation satisfaction
is needed and demanded
accordingly. Of
the Service rendered by
suffering punishment,
no individual having
more need than another,
the pursuer, if any, must
be a Government Agent
say a Government Advocate.
In this case, the compensation satisfaction
is demanded by the
private; the punishment
by the public pursuer.
As to the Government Advocate
see Const. Code
Ch XI. Judiciary Collectively

1 (a.)
[Non penal] Civil why,
though customary, why
not here employed?
Answer it is ambiguous, meaning
non penal, non-Military,
non-ecclesiastical
or non-canon
