46RZ23, The Validate the Documents Act
WHEREAS it is custom to validate documents with an official seal; and,
WHEREAS we have not any laws in place that would penalise any "pseudo-validation" of a person, or documents, by bearing official seals; now,
THEREFORE a new section after A.22. shall be inserted in Title A of the Lexhatx, to read:
- 23. The unauthorised usage of any official seal of the Crown, of the Government, or of any other official body, shall constitute a Class A misdemeanour. Authorisation may be given by the Seneschal or the respective Minister, or by the head of the body concerned, or any of their duly designated proxies.
- 23.1. The unauthorised bearing, signing or displaying of any official seal of the Crown, of the Government, or of any other official body, shall constitute a Class A misdemeanour. Authorisation to bear any seal may be granted by the Seneschal, or the respective Minister, or by the head of the body concerned.
- 23.2. The use of any seal, that is attached unto a document, or a notification, or a declaration, or similar, that bears sufficient resemblance to any official seal, which is used by the creator in a document, or notification, or declaration, or similar, so as to create the impression of officiality, in order to:
- (a) obtain any personal advantages or benefits; or,
- (b) put a person or a body in disadvantage, or discredit a person or a body; or,
- (c) obtain any benefits and advantages for another person,
- shall constitute a Class A misdemeanour.
- 23.2.1. Whether any seal, that is used in such a manner, bears “sufficient resemblance”, must, in cases of doubt, be decided by the Courts on an individual basis.
- 23.2.2. The use of the Kingdom’s colours (“El Bicoloreu”) on any seal does not satisfy the requirements of “sufficient resemblance”.
- 23.3. Any subsequent unauthorised use of any seal, committed by a formerly punished convict of this act, shall constitute a Class I felony.
- shall constitute a Class A misdemeanour.
FURTHERMORE, the numbering of the following section 23 (23RZ45) shall be altered to 24.
