Provost Marshal Office

The Provost Marshal's Office is an organization within the UN tasked with ensuring the Uniform Code of Military Justice is being properly enforced and not being misused aboard UN warships, military bases, and outposts. They are the ultimate authority on anything justice related, and are led by the Provost Chief Marshal.

The PMO has one sub-organization, which is the Provost Intelligence Department, which is usually responsible for UN internal affairs and foreign intelligence.

Organization

The Provost Marshal Office is headed by a Provost Chief Marshal, who is tasked with overseeing the entirety of the PMO, liaising and cooperating with Marine High Command, and selecting Sector Marshals. Sector Marshals are responsible for handling Provost and Military Police related matters within a specific sector, delegating to their Marshal subordinates to handle more specific incidents and situations on UNMC ships.

Beneath the Marshals are Provost Inspectors; often visiting warships and bases for long periods of time, they work to make sure that abuses of authority are not conducted and new members of the Military Police are properly inducted and taught. They are typically the highest authority regarding the Uniform Code of Military Justice and its interpretation, even above the Commander of the facility they are stationed on, unless a member of the Provost Office is dispatched to the ship.

The Provost Marshal Office maintains a small force of Enforcers, deployed to protect Provost Officials, or to quell mutinies which threaten the safety of the UN and authority of the UNMC.

Operations

The Provost Marshal Office oversees the various operations of the Military Police stationed on UNMC and UNSN vessels. As each Military Police Department cannot be regularly watched and guided, the PMO will keep a hands-off approach unless a severe breach of Marine Law has occurred. Another aspect of their role is updating Marine Law to meet the intentions and needs of the Provost Marshal Office, and aiding High Command with updating Standard Operating Procedures to avoid any conflicts with Marine Law.

As they service only the Military branches of the UN, the Provost Marshal Office and by extension, the Military Police under them, are entirely barred from arresting civilians excepting two circumstances; when a civilian violates Marine Law while in an AO or aboard a UN warship, or when authorized to by a Sector Marshal.
