The Kersey Association was a star nation that was actually little more than a group of well organized pirates.

In their war against the Manitoban Republic, they put a number of convicted Manitoban murderers into Kerseyite uniform and then claimed that, if captured, their status as prisoners of war prevented the Manitobans from executing their sentences.

This resulted in the amendment of the Deneb Accords to include Section 27, Subsection 41, giving a star nation the right to execute sentences on prisoners of war that predated the conflict in question. (HH7)
