At the trials they followed the format of telling the defendants what they were charged with, then the defendants had to declare whether or not they were guilty or innocent. The Military Attorney who was the prosecutor presented his cases and evidence of proof against the defendants.

Witnesses were called and both attorney for the defense and the prosecution to question. After the prosecutions case was presented (which took months considering they tried many all at once) the defense attorneys presented their defense cases and the witnesses were called again.

Once that was done, the trial was recessed, The judges (not a jury) took all the information and decided who was guilty or innocent. They decided on the sentencing. When all that was done the Judges recalled the court to session and they read each defendants acquittal or conviction status on each charge, then their sentences if convicted. The convicted defendants were then taken to have their sentence carried out. The acquitted were released.

The Judges came from many nations and different courts.
