Captain '''Jules Tarney'''<ref>His first name comes from the script of "[[The Son Also Rises]]" (See ''[[Sources:The Son Also Rises]]'').</ref> is the commanding officer of the civilian vessel ''[[Pyxis]]''.

Tarney is one of five Fleet captains selected to be a judge at [[Gaius Baltar]]'s trial <ref>In one scene from "Crossroads, Part I" his [[:md:Image:PyxisCaptain.jpg|uniform patch]] is shown clearly enough to read the ship's name.</ref>. When Admiral [[William Adama|Adama]] tries to prevent President [[Laura Roslin|Roslin]] from having to testify about her renewed use of [[chamalla]], Tarney and [[Doyle Franks|Franks]] overrule him. Later, he wants to hear [[Lee Adama]]'s testimony. However it is uncertain how he votes on the issue of Baltar's guilt ([[TRS]]: "[[Crossroads, Part I]]" & "[[Crossroads, Part II|Part II]]").

Evidently, he had not boarded ''Pyxis'' by the time of the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]] in which it was destroyed by the Cylons. He goes on to be one of the members of the new [[Quorum of Twelve (RDM)|Quorum]] made up of ship captains, but it is unknown what ship he represents {{TRS|Islanded in a Stream of Stars}}.

== Notes == 

* Tarney's name is not mentioned until "[[He That Believeth in Me]]" by [[Laura Roslin]]. The actor does not appear in the episode.
