Very interesting topic. I was glad that Kat kept her temper; at such a hearing she'd be bound to come across opinions she disagreed with, so no doubt she was more prepared.

Tiny error in the section of the tax evader: "He claimed had been robbed" should be 'he claimed to have been robbed' or 'he claimed he had been robbed.'

It was good to get some of Honor's family history in the second one. One's past says so much about one, often. And he has a sister who's a priestess; will we ever meet her?

I like how Honor wants Kat to help Zayn, too. It's hard to know what to do in a case like that, but especially hard since Kat doesn't even know Zayn.
