English Translation
(2) in the case of a public health autopsy - see 6 (a) (2) above - the report to the competent district authority (Statutarstadt), (3) in the event of a judicial autopsy, see 6 a) (1) above - to the responsible public prosecutor's office. The family members or persons responsible for the funeral are given a certificate by the district authority (Statututarstadt) — at the time of the judicial autopsy by the public prosecutor's office — of the right to carry out the funeral. If relatives do not exist or if another private person does not take over the regulation of the occupation, the municipality in whose spree the person died or her body has been found must be notified, which must arrange for everything else in agreement with the funeral institutes to be considered for burial. The district authority (Statututarstadt) shall be notified by letter. 9. 1. In cases of intervention, the Protectorate Criminal Police shall be responsible, if necessary, for the provisional security of the deceased's estate or residence and for the appropriate understanding of the competent court of succession. (2) Where there is a lack of protection, immediate measures shall be taken by the competent court of succession to secure it. (3) If there is danger in delay, i.e. If the order of the court to be expected after a longer period of time cannot be awaited, the protectorate criminal police shall be in addition to the refund of the complaint to the court, indicating the approximate value of the estate, the name and address of the relatives and the presumed heir, as well as the addition of a found will, etc. also required for the precautionary measures to prevent the delay. (4) Safeguard measures are usually not necessary if (a) the estate is of little value - these things are to be left in the custody of the landlord or apartment tenant against the signed confirmation -, (b) close relatives of the deceased person are present or allow themselves to be accepted without any reason for particular mistrust. (5) Safeguard measures must be taken where (a) the estate is of considerable value, (b) money and valuable objects are present and eligible persons are unaccompanied, (c) the heirs are not present, (d) the authority of the reporting heir gives rise to doubts. (6) In accordance with the circumstances, the following safeguards may be applied: (a) closing of containers and doors, (b) placing of seals, provided that the goods are not inferior - but always in the case of valuables after the previous closure -, (c) keeping of individual valuables, (d) posting of an organ, if it is a great legacy and a security is not sufficient after the situation of the case. (7) Valuables held in custody must be inventarized in principle to the competent estate court against confirmation. If the estate court is not known, the valuables must be kept in custody for the time being. (8) As soon as the estate tribunal is informed, the latter must leave the further. The criminal police have nothing to do with the inheritance regulations themselves. Any interference in inheritance matters is therefore inadmissible. 5
