      4.) The Commercial Court and the City Council of
Leipzig must directly forward any questions singled
out as requiring the assessment of these experts,
together with the objects to be examined and the records
in each case, to the relevant section of the Association.
All other judicial authorities must do this indirectly,
after receipt of a requisition order [?] from the
Commercial Court; similarly, all other administrative
authorities must await a requisition order [?] from the
City Council.

      5.) The section concerned must draw up a joint
written report, giving the reasoning for their arguments,
on the questions submitted to it. Insofar as, however,
the members of the section fail to reach and agree on
unanimous views, the different opinions held by individual
members are to be included in the report - it is especially
important that this is observed with regard to the
assessment of the damages [suffered by the injured party.]

      6.) The report is to be signed by those members of
the section who took part in the consultations, and it is
then to be submitted - together with the records and any
supplementary material, as well as an estimation of the
fee for this service, which is to be included alongside
the other costs that arise in the course of the proceedings
- to the Commercial Court or the City Council as the case
may be.

      7.) The extent to which the adjucating judge or the
administrative authority are to take into consideration
the report when deciding on a verdict or ruling, is to be
determined according to general legal principles.

                  All persons whom this ordinance concerns
must observe what is laid out above.

                        Dresden, 22 February 1844.

                              The Ministries of Justice and of the Interior.
