New trek tries to do something similar, at least in Strange New Worlds anyways. Theres a whole courtroom episode regarding a certain member of the enterprise. Its a pretty new episode so I won’t spoil anything for people. Anyways, theres more than 100 years between the two shows and basically nothing has changed.

Bashir got an exception provided his father spend time in prison. I wouldn’t call that a particularly major win, but thats just me.
