IV.

(pertaining to §. 17)


      In all civil and criminal lawsuits which have to be
decided in accordance with this law, the jurisdiction
which is to come into effect in Leipzig is, depending
on the plaintiff's choice, either that of the defendant's
regular authority or that of the section of the Leipzig
Municipal Court known as the Commercial Court.

V.

(pertaining to §. 18)


      1.) For the purposes of implementing the provisions
contained in this paragraph, there will be, for the time
being and until the desire for a larger number is expressed,
just one Experts' Association to cover the whole of Saxony.

      2.) This Association is to consist of four sections,
            of which one is responsible for the field of
            literary products of all kinds,
            one for that of musical compositions,
            one for the field of the graphic arts: drawing,
            painting, lithography, copper and steel engraving,
            etc. and
            one for the field of the plastic arts: modelling
            with soft clays, sculpture, wood engraving and
            carving, stamp-cutting, the minting of
            commemorative medals, metal casting, etc.
and of which, moreover,
            the 1st is to be made up of:
                  two scholars and
                  two booksellers,
            the 2nd is to consist of
                  two composers and
                  two music shop-owners,
            the 3rd is to be made up of
                  two art experts and
                  two art dealers,
            and the 4th is to consist of five art experts.

3.) Directives for the selection and appointment of these
experts and their deputies are now being issued jointly
(and will continue to be so) by the Ministries of Justice
and of the Interior. They are to be sworn in before the
Municipal Court in Leipzig.
