UNSC colonial charter

The UNSC Colonial Charter was a set of laws used by colonies of the United Nations Space Command.

Internal security amendment
At some point before 2525, the UNSC amended the charter to facilitate security in the event of a crisis. The Internal Security Amendment is a piece of legislation to the UNSC Colonial Charter, which includes at least two sections. Section two of the amendment, in particular, allowed the ranking military officer of a colony to strip the colonial governor of title and privilege. During the First Battle of Harvest, Jilan al-Cygni referenced the eighth paragraph of the second section which legally enabled her to assume military control of the planet Harvest, overriding even the colonial Governor, Nils Thune.
