How about torture or ban punishment.It's like this:
Oance the sentence is given the noble has the following options:
A)accept torture-he has 3 days to do this after the sentence is cast.
B)Ignore sentence and get banned-this happens if he has not accepted torture in 3 days.
C)Leave the realm in 3 days.
The judge will receive no penalties for this torture since it is being done with the noble's approval.
He can also determine how severe the torture will be.
Being unconscious is worse than jail.At lest there are things you can do in jail.
Wouldn't work in any realm I've ever been in. Any character seriously RPed would hold a tremendous grudge against the torturer. Torture was probably the worst dishonor a noble could face.
Any judge that tortured a realmmate for anything else than high treason wouldn't remain judge for long.
