'''Common Space Law''' is a piece or pieces of human legislation. It contains sections pertaining to rules of engagement and rendering aid to vessels in distress.<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''', ''[[The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J. Cole]]'', page 446</ref> This law, or group of laws may or may not include the five international treaties negotiated by the [[wikipedia:United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space|United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space]] in the 20th century. It may also be the successor to those agreements. | |||
According to [[Codename: SURGEON]], prior to the [[Insurrection]], [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] officers and merchant men had a near-religious reverence for Common Space Law. During the [[Callisto Incident|''Callisto'' Incident]], [[Preston Cole]] severely broke protocol by sending a fake distress signal in order to lure his opponent closer. SURGEON's remarks imply that as the Insurrection wore on, respect for Common Space Law lessened significantly. During the [[Human-Covenant War]] it was likely ignored alltogether. | |||
