An obligation can occur or be presumed without agreement from the
expected agent. A court judge, for example, can rule that koha shall
spend 10 years in prison regardless of koha's agreement. A prison
break happens during a servitude: {mi cliva ca lo nu bilga lo nu to'e
cliva}.

I'm not sure a prison sentence can be counted as an obligation unless it really is agreed to.
