SCA Corpora
. Banishment.
NOTE: I have removed much of this text, as Rachel was not banished, but exiled from the realm. Please see notes below.
The result: She may not attend events in the current reign.
(2) Banishment from the realm withholds recognition of the banished person's honors and titles, and bars active participation in Society events in that realm for the duration of the banishment or the reign, whichever is lesser. Banishment from the realm specifically does not preclude attendance at events, as long as the banished person makes no effort to engage in activities subject to the jurisdiction of any officer, or otherwise disrupt the peace of the event. The Society Seneschal and the Board will automatically review banishments from the realm. Such a banishment must be imposed only in response to serious transgressions against Society rules or standards of behavior at a Society event or in the course of performing official duties on behalf of the Society. If the Board determines that such a banishment is without merit or has been unfairly imposed, the banishment will be lifted and the royalty that imposed it may be subject to sanctions.

Thanks to Hamish (Dave) for the note. The specific language used on Saturday, in the announcement, as I recall, was: "Rachel Zavala, known in the SCA as Ysabella Dolphin, is level II banished." When it is published in the Kingdom newsletter, in the ...November issue, as per Corpora, we will have the exact words. I RECALLED WRONG.
Megan has stated that reasons are not given to the general populace due to the everpresent American possibility of lawsuit. She has both reigned and served as Kingdom seneschal, and has the clue. However, we should be able to see a history
of actions taken both as a problem, and to correct that problem. That history is not clear to me. Please note that I worked with Ysabella on the Esfenn Feast of the Fine Arts, and so may be considered partisan.
Please note that the opinion I am expressing is that I wish more information, directly from sources, rather than stir the witch's cauldron of rumor.

2. Greater Royal Sanctions
A Greater Sanction may be imposed only in response to serious transgressions against Society rules, serious
violations of standards of behavior at a Society event, or other actions that negatively affect or endanger the
Society. These Sanctions continue for the stated duration of the Sanction or until the end of the reign,
whichever comes first.
Greater Sanctions imposed by the Royalty of a Principality require prior written approval by the Crown, and
may be lifted by the Crown. Greater Sanctions are:
• Withdrawal of the Privileges of Rank precludes the sanctioned individual from exercising
any privileges of rank in the realm of the issuing Royalty. This includes, but is not limited to,
peerage polling privileges, as well as the use of associated titles and regalia.
• Banishment from the Realm bars the sanctioned individual from active participation in
Society events in that realm. Banishment from the realm specifically does not preclude
attendance at events, as long as the banished person makes no effort to engage in activities
subject to the jurisdiction of any officer except as required for event attendance, or otherwise
disrupt the peace of the event. Additionally, such a banishment carries with it the
restrictions of a Banishment from the Royal Presence.
• Exile from the Realm precludes the sanctioned individual from attending any SCA
function in that realm.
• Absolute Banishment precludes the sanctioned individual from attending any SCA
function in any realm. In addition to the general requirements for Greater Sanctions, an
Absolute Banishment may only be imposed when grounds for a Revocation and Denial of
Membership exist. An Absolute Banishment automatically carries with it a request
Thanks!
