The document of 6 pages contains the typewritten copy of a court judgement issued by the Special Court in Prague in August 1944. Emil Wacker (born in 1900 in Nuremberg) went to court for illicit buying of fuel, gas oil and propellant gas. The accused claimed for himself that he had stolen the petrol out of self-interest because he needed it for his circus, not for making profit - he received a five-year prison sentence in a so-called Zuchthaus. The court judgement was based on the so-called"Volksschädlingsverordnun" as well as the"Kriegswirtschaftsverordnun" and also includes the cases of other civilians who were sentenced to various terms of imprisonment or even to death: Franz Martinek, Franz Urban, Johann Nadvornik, Josef Kolafa, Vlastimil Šimáček, Wenzel Ulrych, Josef Slavik and Bohumil Čeněk.
