Ooo, here's a good one. Isn't there a "Police Procedures" special skill in
the hands of an NPC somewhere? Sprawl Sites??? I think I would place "Law"
as a Knowledge skill for certain. Sadly, it would probably fall under
"Sociology" within the current mechanics, and I -KNOW- that doesn't do it
justice (ick, a pun).

Nope, no skill currently within any of the books that I have found, or at
least quickly recall. I know we've had Etiquette (Corporate) cover a lot of
the stuff before. And then, as a spinoff of "Police Procedures", we've had
"Business Procedures", with concentrations in Corporate, Private and Short-
Term.
