LEGAL STATUS OF KISS
Is FIXED BY COURT
Party Who Merely Affects COyness
Has No Grounds For Filing
Charges.

LONDON. April IL The legal
status Of the kiss has been formally
laid down by the imperial court al
Leipsig as follows:
a kiss is an operation performed
on the body OF another. which always
requires the permission OF the person
kissed. Kisses may only be given
without special permission when taCit
consent is certain; that is 10 say i'm
the case OF close relatives. children or
lovers.
IF. however. the other party not
merely affects coyness. but offers ser
iOus resistance. the kiss may be re-
garded as illegal interference with
personal right and infringement of
honor. Whoever under such cirCum-
stances imposes a kiss on another
renders himself guilty OF assault"
