Detective Rank

Lexicon Entry
Detectives of the DA are assigned a number to indicate their rank within the organization.

These ranks are determined by an individual's achievements. The higher one's rank, the more difficult the cases they receive.

When egos collide and neither side can reach an agreement, the higher-ranking detective will be given priority, provided that there is no clear evidence that works against their favor.

As detectives tend to be rather self-important, the ranking system was created to mitigate any otherwise inevitable conflicts of opinion.
