#does the slimeball moon owner have the rights to sell the korosian properties built on his moon?

[swan2swan]

Plebians: “Galactic politics are boring.”

Me: “So imagine there was a planet near Korosian space that was utterly uninhabitable but filled with raw materials and blessed with a semi-habitable moon. The moon was privately owned by an ostentatiously wealthy Repuiblic citizen, while the planet was used by Korosians to harvest raw materials for their shipyards. During the Clone Wars, the Republic earned the Korosians’ support by helping to secure building permits with the moon’s owner so the Korosians could construct warehouses, small refineries, and housing villages, exponentially increasing their production levels. However, several years after the formation of the Empire, the man who owned the moon sold the whole thing to Sienar Fleet Systems. Sienar immediately claimed ownership of the moon AND its infrastructure, and shut off power to the warehouses and villages. Korosian citizens began protesting, and Sienar sent in their own private security forces--and then Korosia sent in their own battleships, blockading the system and refusing to allow Sienar to send in ships, while menacing any Sienar forces that threatened supply ships sent to the starving colonists. Sienar responded by putting some of their own cruisers into orbit, leading to a standoff. How would the Empire handle this situation?”
