Statute overview

About this statute

This preamble says the Grand-Ducal Order is being issued to simplify and speed up prosecution of certain crimes against State security and allied forces, and to allow retroactive application for some serious offences. Certain crimes and delicts are to be investigated and tried under misdemeanor procedure; the relevant courts sit with 5 judges including 2 lay assessors, who must swear an oath before starting, and the Justice Minister sets their indemnities. This article says certain Criminal Code articles apply retroactively to 10 May 1940. Judges may, in very favourable cases and when applying mitigating circumstances to certain Penal Code crimes, reduce the sentence below the usual levels set out here. This article corrects a reference in Article 122, paragraph 1 of the Penal Code: the penalties are in Chapter III of Title IX, not Chapter II.
