The cha'DIch is a position within the Klingon legal system and is essentially a warriors 'second' during a trial. This is because during the trial, the combat privileges of the accused are denied, the cha'DIch must physically protect him. In 2366, Kurn served as Worf's cha'DIch when he challenged the Klingon High Council. When Kurn was later injured during an assassination attempt by Duras, Jean-Luc Picard took over the role.

  • Cha'DIch was a title in the Klingon legal system. A warrior challenging a ruling of the Klingon High Council was not allowed personal combat. He therefore chose a cha'DIch to fight for him. The person selected as cha'DIch would speak the words jIlajneS. ghIj qet jaghmeyjaj. (I accept. May your enemies run with fear.) After being introduced to the council, the cha'DIch was handed a sword in a scabbard to wear. Picard reminded Worf of his service as cha'DIch and their special relationship in 2367, when they were en route to Qo'noS for Gowron's inauguration. (TNG: "Redemption" )
