Temporal State
C126
Definition
Extracted from facts primary
A temporal condition in which a client has given a professional notice of its intent not to renew the engagement contract while the contract remains in force, so the professional is in a wind-down window between the non-renewal notice and the contract expiration during which duties owed under the engagement still hold.
Inherited from TemporalState · note
A condition defined by phase or timing: a pre- or post-termination phase, a before- or after-notification window, a deadline window. As a content kind it is the temporal standing of the situation. Its deontic relevance is that it bounds when a time-relative obligation holds: the phase is an Event Calculus fluent, initiated and terminated by events and inertial or non-inertial in the sense of Berreby et al. (2017); reading the bounded duty off the fluent span is this design's own move.

Conflict Of Interest State
C126
Definition
Extracted from facts primary
A condition in which an agent holds competing interests or loyalties, or competing role-derived duties, that cannot all be fully served, here Engineer B retained to review Engineer A's pending design work under a client instruction of nondisclosure while Engineer A remains under contract with the same client, setting B's duty to the retaining client against candid dealing with the incumbent engineer.
Inherited from ConflictOfInterestState · note
A condition in which an agent holds competing interests or loyalties, or competing role-derived duties, that cannot all be fully served and that bias or constrain the exercise of professional judgment. As a content kind it is the standing tension among interests, covering both conflict of interest and competing duties. Its deontic relevance is that it renders the affected obligations defeasible against one another and grounds the competesWith, prevailsOver, and defeasibleUnder edge family.

Definition
Extracted from facts primary
An epistemic condition in which the engineer whose work is being reviewed knows that another engineer has been retained to review it, here Engineer A knowing of Engineer B's relationship with the franchiser and the preliminary results of B's review after B's notification.
Inherited from PeerReviewAwarenessState · note
An epistemic condition in which the engineer whose work is being reviewed knows that another engineer has been retained to inspect the facility and that the resulting evaluation will necessarily entail a review of the original designs, so the knowledge condition of Section 12(a) is satisfied. Here Engineer A knew of Engineer B's retention and of the review it would entail.

Epistemic State
C126
Definition
Extracted from facts primary
An epistemic condition in which design concerns remain unresolved and pending in connection with a professional's design work, so the client's uncertainty about the adequacy of the pending designs prompts an immediate independent review.
Inherited from EpistemicState · note
A condition of what an agent knows, believes, or is uncertain of with respect to facts material to a decision. As a content kind it captures the agent's knowledge state, the classical Aristotelian epistemic condition for responsibility: an agent is answerable for conduct in proportion to what the agent knew or should have known; Sarmiento et al. (2022) name epistemic aspects fundamental for moving beyond causality to responsibility. Its deontic relevance is that knowledge conditions the obligations governing informed decision and decision-under-uncertainty.
