# LDC-E8208 — Second template in one label

## What it means

A label carries at most one predicate template: one relation has one
verbal shape, and two competing sentences on the same label can never
agree. When a label declares a second template — in the same label
block or in a repeated label for the same language — the compiler stops
at the second one and asks to keep only one.

Merging the two sentences into a single template is the whole fix.

## Example

```law
language "law.core" version "0.2";
package demo.diag version "0.1.0";
namespace "urn:law:demo:diag";

entity C { label ru-KZ official "C"; }
relation r(a: C) kind empirical {
    label ru-KZ official "r" { template "{a}"; template "and {a}"; }
}
```

## Fix

```law
language "law.core" version "0.2";
package demo.diag version "0.1.0";
namespace "urn:law:demo:diag";

entity C { label ru-KZ official "C"; }
relation r(a: C) kind empirical {
    label ru-KZ official "r" { template "{a}"; }
}
```

## Engine message

The engine reports this in its own wording:

```text
example.law:7:48: error LDC-E8208: second predicate template in label "ru-KZ": a label has one template (§218.2)
```
