In 1297 the curial verdict obliged Eric "Menved" to compensate Grand with a silver weight of 40,000 marks of Lund, an enormous amount at that time. When Eric "Menved" refused to provide that amount of silver, Boniface issued an interdict on Denmark and a ban on Eric "Menved", but without much effect. Both the Danish bishops and much of the people seem to have preferred a peaceful solution. The papal nuncio sent out to execute the verdict, Isarnus Tacconi (also Isarno Morlane) from Fontiès-d'Aude, archpriest of Carcassonne, came off empty-handed. In 1301 Tacconi became Prince-Archbishop of Riga.
