1. Regulations

1.1 Assault

The assault of any member of the Liberty Forces for any reason is illegal, unless specific verbal exemption is given for a particular instance by a member of the high command structures of the Primary Fleets only.

The assault of any civilian for any reason, including the collection of bounties, is illegal. The only case that this is allowed is if that civilian has breached the law, and only if permitted by a representative of the Liberty Forces. Permission is granted by official bounty on the Separatists Bounty Board.

Mercenaries and Freelancers are allowed to collect against those already part of groups that the Liberty Forces consider hostile.

Self-defense is permitted. That is the primary use for civilian weaponry in the house of Liberty.

1.2 Non-violent crimes

Fleeing from an officer when stopped
This is defined as fleeing any officer when he or she is attempting to question you. If an officer stops you using a cruise disruptor, that is an expression of his or her will to stop you. Ignoring this is a crime.

Inciting violence
This is defined as convincing or attempting to convince others around you to commit acts of violence against any lawful entity within the house of Liberty.

Military espionage
This is defined as obtaining and then sharing, without the consent of the Liberty Provisionary Government, classified information on any matter deemed to contribute to national security.

1.3 Obstructing the course of justice

Any individual preventing, evading or delaying the administration of punishment on to an individual found to be breaking the law will be subject to any punishment deemed necessary by the ranking officer on duty.

Destroying or stealing cargo from the wreck of an individual who has been destroyed for breaking the law counts as obstructing the course of justice. Evidence must be confiscated by the Primary Fleets, with secondary priority going to the rest of the Liberty Forces. Attempts to prevent this action will be considered accordingly. The only exception to this is when the commanding officer on the scene gives verbal exemption to those wishing to scavenge the wreck of a criminal's ship.

1.4 Lingering within military space

Ships of suspicious or hostile identification should not linger within Separatist Space. These ships should utilize the fastest way out of these territories.
