The April Tribunal was a terrorist group in the Honorverse.

The April Tribunal was splinter group of the Citizens Rights Union (CRU), a terrorist organization in the People's Republic of Haven. Unlike factions within the CRU, the April Tribunal or Aprilists as the individual members were called, had a reputation for fighting a "clean" war because they only targeted members of the Office of Internal Security. After the Harris Assassination, the Tribunal publicly supported the Committee of Public Safety.
