2. Name of Act (or Short Description)	Rescript, issued by the Danish Chancellery to the Magistrate at Copenhagen
3. Geography of Act	Present-day Denmark
4. Text of Act	Since it is known to the Chancellery that in debt cases, the Supreme Court has assumed that a Jew, although he is legally incompetent under Danish law, should [nevertheless] be regarded as competent, because according to Jewish law he has reached the age of majority, so must the same rule be followed with respect to guardianship, until such time as it is expressly regulated otherwise.
