A bounty was a monetary reward given when someone was captured or killed for a client. One who sought bounties was a bounty hunter.
The word was used informally to refer to the payment for a service, particularly in the case of finding a missing person.[1]
Bounties were sometimes categorized into local bounties, system bounties, sector bounties and regional bounties. Submission of a valid B23-1-14 permit enabled a bounty hunter to collect the maximum amount possible.
The Imperial bounty system of the Galactic Civil War era allowed two types of bounties to be posted- public and private, the latter making the poster anonymous, though it could be accessed by someone carrying a bounty hunting license.
During the Imperial Era Imperial Peace Keeping Certificates were issued to licensed bounty hunters, and were presumably required for hunters of the era.
