1933 REICHSGESETZBLATT, PART 1, PAGE 188
The Reich government has enacted the following law which is promulgated herewith:
Article 1
The admission [to the bar] of attorneys who, according to the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service of 7 April 1933 (Reichsgesetzblatt, Part 1, page 175), are of non-Aryan descent, may be revoked before 30 September 1933.
The provision of paragraph 1 does not apply to attorneys who were already admitted on 1 August 1914 or who, during World War I, fought for the German Reich or her allies, or whose fathers or sons were killed in action in World War I.
Article 2
The admission to the bar can be refused to persons, who, according to the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service of 7 April 1933 (Reichsgesetzblatt, Part 1, page 175) are of non-Aryan descent, even though the reasons for this measure provided by the Attorneys’ Ordinance do not apply. The same applies to the admission, at another court, of attorneys designated in article 1, paragraph 2.
Article 3
Persons who have undertaken Communist activities are excluded from admission to the bar. Admissions already granted will be revoked.
