Within the Mega-City One legal system there are numerous bodies and divisions who have specialised tasks:
- Street Division (normal Judges)
- Riot squads
- H-Wagon crews (aerial units)
- Heavies/Manta Tank crews (artillery)
- Academy of Law
- Psi Division (judges with psychic powers, encompassing Exorcist Judges and the Department of Magic)
- Special Judicial Squad or SJS (internal affairs)
- Technical Division, a.k.a. Tek Division (scientists)
- "Wally Squad" (Undercover Division)
- Space Corps
- Public Surveillance Unit (PSU)
- Black Ops
- Defence Division (army)
- Public Relations Division
- Accounts
- Traffic
- Med Division
- Meat Wagons (corpse disposal, often using civilian auxilaries)
- Township deputies (mutant deputies drafted to police Cursed Earth townships)
- Holocaust Squad (teams of disgraced Judges who undertake suicide missions at times of extreme peril to Mega-City One)
In 2134, there was an across-the-board divisional merger, creating:
- Street Division: absorbing Meat Wagon, H-Wagon, Riot, and Sniper divisions
- Undercover Operations Division: newly created and encompassing SJS, Black Ops, Wally Squad, and PSU.

Famous quotes containing the words divisions and/or bodies:
“Nothing does more to activate Christian divisions than talk about Christian unity.”
—Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)
“When the landscape buckles and jerks around, when a dust column of debris rises from the collapse of a block of buildings on bodies that could have been your own, when the staves of history fall awry and the barrel of time bursts apart, some turn to prayer, some to poetry: words in the memory, a stained book carried close to the body, the notebook scribbled by hand—a center of gravity.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
