In reference to fees or other requirements, but that can be skipped or bypassed ... you could use the word waive.
IE. There's a $10 fee to join the club but for this month only I'll waive it.
There's a minimum age of 30 and two years of prior service but will be waived if you have a master's degree.

You can waive your rights. As in I waive my right to remain silent. These means you give up your right to not speak.

Citing the Benoit case is the easiest way for someone uniformed about wrestling to argue against wrestling. To characterize all wrestlers as child-murderers is completely illogical, and I think most of the bashers already realize this. It's like saying all NFL players are dog-killers and all MLB players are on steroids. Those kinds of generalizations makes no sense. Most of the Benoit questions I see are pointless. The logic behind them seems to be: if I can't use reason, then I'll appeal to shock value.

absolutely. If you "waive" your right to an attorney when you're arrested, that means you refuse an attorney. A "waiver" is something you sign to absolve someone of responsibilty. (like understanding the risks associated with plastic surgery, etc.)
