Rhumann

Ja Rhumann is the senior partner of the law firm Rhumann, Willian, and Mandell. He appears in the Farscape episode "Dream a Little Dream."
Rhumann's firm is the current governing firm of the planet Litigara, a planet that consists of 90% lawyers and 10% oppressed "Utilities." Rhumann has Utilities' rights activist Wesley Kenn murdered and frames it on Zhaan, a plot later uncovered by Chiana and Rygel. When Chiana and Rygel prove to be competent lawyers for Zhaan, sowing doubt about her guilt in the case, Rhumann threatens to push false charges against the two.
Chiana and Rygel later call Rhumann as a witness to the stand. Using a piece of wood, Chiana invokes "The Light of Truth," a parable mentioned in the legal text (and basis for all Litigaran law) Axiom. With Pilot and Moya's help, the wood lights up when Rhumann lies about his involvement in Zhaan's case, and Zhaan is set free. Rhumann's fate is unknown.
