Alderaan Ascendency Contention
a power struggle within the Alderaanian hierarchy that occurred several decades before the Clone Wars, in which the various high houses of Alderaan could not make up their mind as to which would assume the throne of Viceroy of Alderaan. After three separate votes yielded no outcome, the Jedi Knights were asked to mediate the contention. Jorus C'baoth was among the Jedi assigned to the Contention, and their ruling was that Bail Organa had the rightful claim to the title of Viceroy.
