Constitutional CodeCh. XXV. Justice Minister
§. 5. Dispunitive function
Enactive – Instructional – Ratiocinative
Art. 13. 3. Ground the third. Multitude of Co-delinquents. For In this case, for the same reason as in the case No. 1,
the exercise of the dispunitive power belongs – not to
the Justice Minister, but to the Prime Minister.
Various offences there are, in which, with or without
mutual concert, it may happen to individuals, in numbers altogether
unlimited, to embark: in particular such as in
a suit in acts of hostility to the ruling powers. In the course
of a civil war, it may happen, to the minority, in any proportion,
to have the upper hand, and by that means have
to be in possession of all the powers of government. In such
a state of things, all the whole number of the members of the community with
the exception of those members of the minority, may
be in the condition of co-delinquents: and, to avoid
giving exercise to the dispunitive power – and that
at a time antecedent to judicial pursuit, or say prosecution would be physically
impossible not merely inexpedient but physically
impossible.
