9. And if someone should commit
treason and leave [as survivors) in the Muscovite state either his father,
or his mother, or his brothers, or his cousins, or his uncles, or any
other member of his family, and if he lived with them and they jointly
owned their livestock and their hereditary estates, such traitor should be
thoroughly investigated in order to determine whether his father, or his
mother, or his relatives knew of his treason. Should an investigation
determine that they knew of his treason, they should be executed and their
livestock and hereditary and service estates transferred to the Sovereign.
