PRAGMATIC SANCTION
(bouvier) | PRAGMATIC SANCTION, French law. This expression is used to designate those
ordinances which concern the most important object of the civil or
ecclesiastical administration. Merl. Repert, h.t.; 1 Fournel, Hist. des
Avocats, 24, 38, 39. 2. In the civil law, the answer given by the emperors
on questions of law, when consulted by a corporation or the citizens of a
province, or of a, municipality, was called a pragmatic sanction. Lecons El.
du Dr. Civ. Rom. Sec. 53. This differed from a rescript. (q.v.)
