  Klingon law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A large proportion of what we know of the Klingon law code comes from the film Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, in which an assassination trial is witnessed, and the Deep Space Nine episode, The House of Quark, in which Quark accidentally kills a Klingon.
A Klingon who allows him or herself to be captured in battle and doesn't attempt to escape or fight his or her way free dishonors themselves and his or her family for three generations.
In Klingon law, a Klingon's family is responsible for his or her actions, and the family is responsible for the individual's acts.

 Klingon Civil War - Memory Alpha   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The Klingon Civil War was a conflict fought in early 2368 over the right to choose the next Chancellor of the Klingon High Council and de facto leader of the Klingon Empire.
Although the majority of the Klingon fleet had not yet chosen sides in the conflict, Gowron despite his support was seriously outnumbered by the Duras forces, who controlled at least seven squadrons and had amassed a large fleet near Beta Thoridar.
Klingon support fell away from the Duras family as knowledge of their collaboration with the Romulans spread, and Gowron's offensive led to a complete victory.

 Klingon Culture
After a Klingon peers into a just-deceased brethren's eyes and looks at death in the face, all Klingons who are present (although even a lone warrior will also perform this ritual on the deceased, given the opportunity) join in a tremendously loud and powerful howl skyward, which lasts several seconds.
Klingons usually mate for life, and the union -- once a couple is "engaged" -- is solemnized with a sacred traditional oath.
Literally, the Klingon word meaning "the bonding." It is the ceremony of adoptive brotherhood that Lieutenant Worf completed with fellow orphan Jeremy Aster, after the boy's mother died on stardate 43198.7 during a mission under the Lieutenant's command.

 KLINGON LAW
The purpose of the Klingon Battle Force is to protect the interests and expand the territorial assets of the Klingon Empire.
As a warrior race, all aspects of Klingon life are integrated with the Battle Force which is under the direct command of the Chancellor, and divisionally organized under the seats of the Klingon High Council.

 Amardeep Singh: No Canadian Sharia, After All
The Toronto Globe and Mail reports that the Ontario government has ruled out Sharia-based family law courts for Muslims in Ontario.
The decision raises a 'fairness' issue, of course, and the McGuinty government's response is to do away with the family law courts for other religions as well.
This is becase it appears that under the new rules, anyone could set up an binding arbitration panel based on secular rules (i.e based on foreign law, klingon law, elvish law, whatever) but religious law will be explicitly prohibited.
