I don't think "Actor" as an object helps much. It adds nothing and has no
recognized meaning in legal terms.

Usually there are parties. Parties have attorneys. They may have witnesses.
There may be non-party victims and witnesses.

I agree with Rolly that citizen, subject and official have no legal context
I am aware of except perhaps for judicial officials.

I think an object syntax is superior to linear relationships, depending on
the crafting of the object.

I give this iteration two thumbs down.
