Summary: A required child element of <legalStatuses> used to encode information about the legal status of a corporate body. May contain: date or dateRange or dateSet (0..1), descriptiveNote (0..1), placeName (0..n), term (1..n) May occur within: legalStatuses Attributes: @audience - optional (values limited to: external, internal) @conventationDeclarationReference - optional @id - optional @languageOfElement - optional @localType- optional @localTypeDeclarationReference - optional @maintenanceEventReference - optional @scriptOfElement - optional @sourceReference - optional @target - optional @valueURI - optional @vocabularySource- optional @vocabularySourceURI - optional Description and Usage: The legal status of a corporate body is typically defined and granted by authorities or through authorized agencies. Enter terms in accordance with provisions of the controlling legislation. Terms may be drawn from controlled vocabularies or may be natural language terms. <legalStatus> must include at least one <term> element, where the legal status of the corporate body is encoded. <term> can be repeated within <legalStatus> to include translations of the same term. Use the @languageOfElement attribute to identify the language used in each <term>. Associated date(s) (<date>, <dateRange> or <dateSet>) and place(s) (<placeName>) may be included to further constrain the term's meaning. A <descriptiveNote> element may be included if fuller textual explanation is needed. Multiple <legalStatus> elements may be grouped within a <legalStatuses> element. Availability: required, repeatable

Result: element ready.

Note: Following the EAC Team meeting on 8 January, <legalStatus> will not have <reference> as direct sub-element anymore. It's not listed for the TL draft, but the schema test confirms its availability. Needs to be rechecked.

[kerstarno]

Updated the schema (models-and-shared-elements.rng) and removed <reference> from the single elements model therein.

Retested.

• <legalStatus> does not allow for <reference> anymore as a direct sub-element in neither the RNG, nor the XSD

Element ready (again).
