Sanctioning Writ
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
A Sanctioning Writ is an official Necromunda document, penned and signed by the Merchants Guild, granting its bearer the right to set bounties on the enemies of the Hive World. Sometimes these are stolen from Guilders – signed but without the subject of the bounty filled in – and are used by gangs to put an official target on their rivals.[1]
