Seppuku and Taxing the Scum
A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.
Yes, assuming he is Courtier or Samurai, and the action's player chooses to have the target's controller lose 2 Honor, then the conditions would be met to use the player ability related to seppuku.
