Summary/Abstract: In 20th century Hungary, the presentation and registration of cartel contracts were among the most vital factors in the legal operation of cartels. The Hungarian cartel act (the 20th Act of 1931) ordained the presentation of cartel contracts to the minister of trade. The operations of Hungarian cartel law can be reconstructed from judicial practices. However, the available memorials only contain the verdicts of courts of first and second instance, sources that contain the full memorials are rarities. Therefore the information found in the dispositional and reasoning segments of the verdicts shall provide assistance in the examination of the rules valid for material, but above all else, procedural law. My goal is not only to describe the rules of procedural law, but also legal practices based on archival sources in connection to presentation omission within the framework of this essay.
