Editing Corporate Team (section)

===Legal Issues===
Corporate teams don't require any sort of license. They usually have a lawyer or legal team to ensure that they follow all the necessary procedures. They don't perform any action without word from the lawyers. This ensures that they don't, cause property damage, deviate from [[Earth Bet]]'s expanded policies for citizen's arrest, mishandle evidence, or step on the toes of legitimate authorities. They often make a point of involving local law enforcement.<ref name=":0" />

Over time, the local authorities generally grant them more leeway and begin cooperating on specific projects, splitting jurisdiction and shifts with them, and/or allowing them access to equipment in exchange for favours. Police, lawyers, and government often periodically audit them to ensure everything is legal, and they often have dedicated liaisons from the PRT.<ref name=":0" />

Corporate teams that fail to comply with procedure are sometimes tacitly allowed to continue operating but are officially labeled vigilantes.<ref>If they screw up, then they're pressured to either close up shop, or they're labeled vigilantes. There's a weird grey area for vigilantes to operate in, where they are breaking the rules or causing issues in procedure, but are tacitly (and not explicitly) acknowledged and allowed to continue operating by local law enforcement and government. There's a careful & dangerous balance to be struck in this, but it offers a lot more freedom. - [https://redd.it/6jhr0y How do corporate/independent heroes function?] ([[Wildbow]], Reddit.com, 2017-06-26)</ref>
