Ordinance, issued by the government of the Kingdom of Bohemia [Present-day Czech Republic]: “As it has come to pass that a Jewish applicant for a wedding license, in order to fraudulently obtain the required permit, produced a falsified attestation of his and his bride’s assets, and thus created the necessity to prevent any such illegal schemes in the future; thus all chief royal officers of the counties are to impress on the magistrates and county offices, that the same shall, in such attestations of assets for Jewish petitioners for a wedding permit, not use numerals for the sum of the combined assets, but letters, with penalties to be faced for any contraventions.”
