Alongside standard law sits the religious law of the Tribunal.

Any religious law/edict breaker is judged by a panel of randomly selected local clergy of the rank Priest or higher.

The Non-Aggression Protocol is considered sacrosanct within the Eridani Corporate Federation and though complex legally, can largely be reduced to the idea that no one within Eridani space should conspire to damage, take part in damaging or incite others to damage corporate interests within Eridani space. Punishments vary from fines to capital punishment. Though oft times a divided people, most Eridanians enshrine the protocol and place great importance on it, though many Eridanians would debate what constitutes a "corporate interest" and "damage(s)".
