Stardate: 42523.7
Data’s rights as a sentient being are questioned when Commander Bruse Maddox, a cyberneticist, want to disassemble the android to make duplicates for Starfleet. From The Star Trek The Next Generation Companion. by Larry Nemecek.
Basically Starfleet ethics are challenged in a legal manner. Captian Picard must ask whether Starfleet are morally justified in bringing about a race of sentient beings to use purely as property and whether or not this constitutes slavery.
Certainly one of the best.

Not a bad episode but not a favourite, for some reason. It is Data-centric, though, so required viewing, of course!
