(1) If an object is confiscated, then ownership of the property, or of the right confiscated, passes to the state when the decision becomes final, or insofar as provided by law it is conferred to the corporation or institution under public law whose agency or office has ordered the confiscation.
(2) Rights of third persons in the object remain unaffected. The forfeiture of these rights is however ordered if the confiscation is based on the fact that the prerequisites of section 22 (2) number 2 are met. The forfeiture of the right of a third person may also be ordered if this person cannot be granted compensation in accordance with section 28 (2) number 1 or 2.
(3) Prior to its becoming valid, the order of confiscation has the effect of a prohibition to alienate within the meaning of section 136 of the Civil Code; the prohibition also comprises orders other than alienation. The order reserving confiscation has the same effect even if it has no current legal force.
