Aircraft had RUD TRV LIM 2 deferred. En route we got both a RUD TRV LIM 1 fault and RUD Trim SYS ECAMS enroute.Original deferral said remaining system must work normally. The reported ECAMS countered this and effectively made the deferral moot.Multiple MRMs inbound. Flight left with most signed off referencing the original deferral.Not sure how this aircraft was released.
Captain reported failure of the #1 Rudder Travel Throw Limiter System in flight with the #2 system already deferred causing the Captain to question the airworthiness of the aircraft.
