Second Principle

The Second Principal is a Law from the Rejuve Universe created by Roguebfl for future use in his series Pint-Sized Engineer and for other authors.

Purpose and function
Under confederation Law, the "Second Principle" of law establishes the Right of Departure, which anyone who is currently not fulfilling an obligation for a crime they have been convicted of—this includes both and those undergoing community service—have the right to emigrate from the world they are living on.

This principle has been held to out law slavery—especial inherited slavery—within all worlds of the confederation. But does not prohibit indentured servitude but only as a criminal sanction. It should be noted the Debtora rejuves are explicitly consider not to meet the restrictions to the second principle even if court ordered though may require notice that there is someone willing to take on guardianship at their destination.

It also been held the Second Principle does not require member would to allow unrestricted immigration to their worlds, though they may be required to offer temporary refugee status for those who had would face undue hardships or persecution on the native worlds until they can find a member world which they can immigrate to.
