 This agreement was approved by the Emperor on 21 March 1754.In 1761, there arose disputes with the Duchy of Palatinate-Zweibrücken over tithes, compulsory labour, taxes and "Wildfangrecht" (a system under which a feudal lord could incorporate any “stray” person in his domain into the ranks of his subjects if he or she could not demonstrate allegiance to another lord).Although the "Reichskammergericht" in Wetzlar ruled in Reipoltskirchen's favour in the case of its grievance, the great Duchy kept on doing with the dwarf state of Reipoltskirchen whatever it deemed fit.
