Crown Prosecutor of Miskolc, anti-Jewish laws, discrimination, Horthy eraAbstract
In the second part of the Horthy era (1938 – 1945), the prosecution sercive of Miskolc had a total of 3.279 ongoing cases of which 23 were procedures related to anti-Jewish laws. A significant part of the 23 procedures terminated already in the investigation phase and only 2 of them reached the court. The study of these 23 cases reflects that the prosecution service conducted a comprehensive investigation and it rather dropped the charges if the proof resulted to be insufficient. We can state that the prosecution service of Miskolc handled the few cases related to anti-Jewish laws very “carefully”, and its practice was not as discriminating as the legal frame would have allowed.
