Admiral T'Lara was a 24th century Vulcan Starfleet flag officer.

In 2372, T'Lara presided over an extradition hearing on Deep Space 9 of Lieutenant Commander Worf, who was accused by Klingon authorities of firing on an unarmed civilian transport.

During the hearing, she allowed the Klingon prosecutor Ch'Pok to proceed down a line of questioning examining Worf's feelings and motives at the time of the incident, even after Captain Sisko's objections, though only as far as logic permitted. When Ch'Pok later submitted evidence obtained from Worf's private database without obtaining a proper search order, T'Lara immediately rejected it as evidence. She later threatened to hold him in contempt of court when he stepped "well beyond the bounds of protocol" as he coerced Worf into a heated argument.

Utimately, she found Worf innocent off the charges when it was revealed the whole incident was an elaborate plot developed by the Klingon Empire. (DS9: "Rules of Engagement")
