Iuris Iustitiaeque, his only publication, is a comprehensive treatise on judicial administration, the practice of law and judges in Roman law. Collegii Publici is an anthology of dissertations presented to Sinold Schutz at the Universities of Marburg and Giessen. The subjects of these dissertations include Roman law, treaties, the Thirty Years' War and procedure.
