In the Duchy of Schleswig, it remained (Das Jütische Low-Buch) and parts were still used until 1900. This particular law did not touch on all asprects of life, so the Roman based laws were consulted and the Carolina. (The Carolina is the law "Hand- und Halsrecht" issued by Emperor Karl V. This law became the basic criminal guideline in the Kingdom of Denmark although Denmark at no point belonged to the Holy Roman Empire). | In the Duchy of Schleswig, it remained (Das Jütische Low-Buch) and parts were still used until 1900.

Even to this day, there are some aspects of the Jütish law which take precedence over the German BGB (federal law) i.e., regarding Lehen und Stammgüter (fiefs), Erbpachtrecht (laws re.fee-farms), Anerbenrecht (inheritances by law of entail), Wasserrecht (water rights), Deichrecht (dike rights), Jagdrecht (hunting rights), Zwangs- und Bannrecht (jurisdiction rights) as well as Haftung des Staates und der Gemeinden (liability of state and communities).

'''Holstenrecht -''' A criminal and civil law (unwritten) in the tradition of the Germanic laws. With time parts of the newer Saxon laws (Sachsenspiegel) were integrated. Jurisdiction was built on parishes. In some villages of the Wilster- and Kremper marsh areas, earls exercised jurisprudence according to the Hollisch Recht. Additionally, in all Holstein cities the Lübische Recht was administered. The monestaries and the manor lords exercised their own interpretations of the law. | '''Holstenrecht -''' A criminal and civil law (unwritten) in the tradition of the Germanic laws.
