Waivers aren't necessarily one-time in nature; they can be ongoing. Example: Many, many contracts explicitly say that any waiver of a contract right is only one-time, so as to rule out an argument by an opposing party that the waiver was continuing. Example: If you enlist in the military, you waive — on an ongoing basis — your Sixth Amendment right to trial by jury, because the Uniform Code of Military Justice prescribes who can sit as a member of a court-martial [plural: courts-martial]. So in the context we're discussing, calling rights "inalienable" or "unalienable" is not a helpful concept. |
