sometimes it's a little more to the point than that.

[ innocent people are not sentenced in mega city one, either — and yet from what she's gathered so far, sentences are passed far more quickly than elsewhere. ]
More to the point?

Or maybe that they just want to wipe you out.
Though 'innocent until proven guilty' is what they like to pretend exists.

'They'?

But, that's not the sort of actual justice my people used. They did, umm, -- oh hell, what was it called? -- a kangaroo court. In my experience, the police could find you anywhere, then they pulled you to court, read the charges, and unless you were very lucky or knew who to bribe, you could go to prison for life or have you soul removed. They weren't fans of evidence.
[Harry scowls before gesturing that maybe he's being too harsh.]
It might've been better for other people, but I can only speak about what I've seen. The innocent punished horribly and the guilty paying their way to freedom. They're trying to change it, but I don't think they will. It's too much paperwork.

Bribery is a crime. [ bribery of a judge especially. for a judge to accept it is also a punishable offense.
but — ] Have your soul removed?

Now we have the Empire and an attempt to make it look like the old system is still in place.

[ she wants to react to the second part of his answer as well, but what does one say when presented with the existence of a corrupt regime so baldly? i'm sorry is certainly not the right response, so she leaves it at asking more questions. ]

It varies from system to system, outside the Republic anyway. But generally it's a matter of innocent until proven guilty, a fair trial, and then sentencing the guilty.
But you've probably got more specific things in mind, don't you miss?
Video
Sentencing, and the enforcements. How many parties are involved in it? What constitutes a fair trial?
