About this statute

This preamble says the monarch found earlier mild measures insufficient and ordered stronger action to ensure more immediate application of existing laws on the cited Diète resolutions. Some manuscripts and related printed/french writings need permission before they can be printed or distributed. This article makes several earlier laws applicable to certain contraventions, allows the public prosecutor to prosecute in defined circumstances, and allows penalties up to two thirds of the maximum in some cases. Printing, editing, or distributing certain writings without prior permission is punishable by the penalties named in the Criminal Code and the law of 6 March 1818. Diet resolutions, once assented to and published in the Grand Duchy, have force of law there.
