Abstract
The period of government of the ban Ivan Mažuranić was a very intensive modernization period during which the previously outdated Croatian legal system was modernized to a significant extent. Modernization was carried out through very intensive legislative activity since more than sixty important laws were enacted at that time. Continuing on this question that has already been investigated in legal historical science, the author questioned the reach and significance of decrees as another legal source in these modernization processes. Based on the analysis of the decrees published in the official gazette of the Kingdoms of Croatia and Slavonia, the author concluded that despite the slowdown in legislative activity after 1875, the decree activity was very intensive and significant even after that year.
