The ruling lists six provisions: abandon all currently pending tri bunals cases, allow banished or departed individuals to return home without molestation, restore citizenship to those affected, pardon deserters from Spanish forces if they surrender by April 15, and extend these terms to those abroad. The measures collectively grant amnesties and repatriation while specifying surrender deadlines.
