Commander of Dannebrog and Dannebrogsmand
Make known: In virtue of 5 of the Colonial Law
of 27th November 1868, | have Professionally sanctioned
the following Ordinance, adopted by the Colonial Council
of st. Croix and of ST. Thomas and st. Johns
l..
The general legal rate of 6 per cent interest in the
lanish-wesindia Islands, fixed in the Danish Codes 9Th
Book, 14th Chapter, 18th Article, and the Rescript of 9th
April 1870, shall in future only be the limit of interest on
loans with mortgage in landed property in the Islands of
st Croix and st. Johns but the rate of interest on all
other loaES in the aforesaid two Islands, and on all loans in
the Island of st. Thomas, shall he free and unlimited.
9.
It shall be lawful for crcdior and debtor to agree, that
no deduction shall be made in the interest due the creditor,
for the Quart-percent-taX which in st. CroiX the debtor
according to the Ordinance of 18th April 1879 has to pay.
3.
When a debtor fails to pay his bcbt in due time, he
shall pay an additional interest of 1 percent p. a., reckoned
from the day the creditor in legal manner sues him for pay
ment and until payment be made, above the rate of inter
est warranted by Law or by the agreement between the
parties or by the custom and usage of merchants. This
shall also be applicable in regard to loans on mortgage in
landed property, but subsequent mortgageholders shall not
suffer by such addition to the rate of interest fixed for such
loans in the Islands of st. Crox and st. Johns, or to the
rate of interest stipulated in the respective mortgage-deeds
in the Island of st. Thomas.
T..
"a The right Of preference established by the Ordinance
of 10Th March 1890 for interest due, such interest going
before mortgage-deeds of a latter date, shall in future in
the ~danish-westindia Islands, the same a. is the case in the
Mothercountry, only extend to a period of one year from
the day the interest becomes due but in regard to mort
g~age-deeds already issued, this enactment shall not be APP
plicable before the next term Of payment that falls due
after the promulgation of this Ordinance.
g..
Instead Of the penalty for usury, prescribed in the
Danish Codes, 5th Book, l4th Chapter, 18th Article, and
in the Ordinance of 14th May 1854 ) 6: viz: the %confsca-
ton of the capital, there shall be inflicted fines on parties
found guilty of that transgression such fines not to be
below four times the amount of the illegally gained adj
vantage and not TO exceed twenty times that amount nrO-
vided accurate information can be produced regarding the
amount so gained, and if rot, then a fine suited to all the
circumstances of the case shall be imposed.
G..
The limit prescribed in the Ordinance of 18th May
1854 s 6 for the fee to commissioners or negotiators, and
the penalty there prescribed for transgressions thereof are
abolished.
To which all concerned have to conform.
