#The UFOP recognizes that in such eventualities, every effort should be made to: (1) encourage attention to such non-UFOP priorities by allowing leave without actual or apparent penalization and (2) provide for the smooth and orderly reintegration and re-activation of said officers who properly take leave.

#For purposes of the EC’s power (and that of the former command officer) to allow the return to active duty and GOOD STANDING a character who has not been on leave in GOOD STANDING as discussed in ARTICLE V of the CONSTITUTION, ‘AWOL’ and ‘RETIRED’ shall have the same administrative effects. HOWEVER, the manner of departure (i.e.- AWOL or properly and honorably retired) SHALL be taken into DISCRETIONARY consideration for purposes of any vote which determines EITHER the character’s right to return OR the rank upon return (in that AWOL shall mitigate unfavorably and proper retirement shall mitigate favorably).

#There shall be no limit to either the length of leave (as long as proper updates take place) nor the number of leaves in a character’s career. There shall be no official or unofficial effect on the character’s standing or rights as enjoyed in UFOP and under the CONSTITUTION, such as promotion rights, rights to awards and honors, rights to appointments to administrative positions, etc.

#Per Article V, section 12, a member deemed retired after AWOL status was attached to their departure must always petition the EC for re-entry.
#If the member's petition is their first petition to return after being previously declared AWOL, the EC reserves the right to grant that petition automatically upon no objection of any EC member or the member's original commanding officer within seven days of the petition being placed before the council. If there is any objection, then the EC shall move to consider the petition with a full vote of the council and if available, their previous commanding officer per the provisions of Article V, section 12.
#Should the member ever subsequently be declared AWOL and then petitions the EC for re-entry again, any such subsequent petition must be considered by full vote of the council and if available, their previous commanding officer per the provisions of Article V, section 12.
