Wait, we were supposed to know you were a lawyer to guess this clue?

No, you were not. I'm just trying to help in any way I can, because all I see is people looking at the picture and guessing blindly.

It's not even necessarily about me being a lawyer, but - let's say - if it was in any way connected to legislation, this might be a useful hint ;)

Also, I've already said so much that if the very next person doesn't use Google and correctly guess the first clue, I'll probably give up.

1533 was the year when Henry VIII married Anne Boleyn and was excommunicated from the Catholic Church. Relevant?

No, but you are close. It happened during Henrys reign and it had consequences far beyond his reign, but it's something different.

Also, indirectly, one of the latter clues is kind of connected to the Catholic Church, but indirectly, not through Henry.

No and I already kinda answered what it is, but nobody seems to have noticed :D

EDIT: Well, it might have something to do with the Reformation, but it's so vague I didn't think of it that way. You might say that the thing in question might have been a consequence of Reformation, but I don't know whether we're not overthinking it.
 
The Church of England became separated from the Catholic Church (although it did not become reformed right then). But are we rather looking at a law change initiated by Henry 8?
 
Yes, we are looking at a law change initiated during his time. He himself didn't think up any acts, right, it was usually someone else. During the time we are talking about that would be Thomas Cromwell.
 
And the act that matches the year was the one which made the King the supreme authority in all matters including ecclestial ones, cutting the ties to the Pope - I can't get off this track.

No, you can't :D

It's a much smaller act in scope. And its ties to the Reformation - well, previously the matter has been mostly the concern of the Church, whereas this one was a secular act of law. So you might say it's a consequence of the Reformation in a way, but not really a direct one. I just put it there because Cried asked if it's not in any way connected to the Reformation, which I'm not sure I could honestly say.

Man, just google "1533 legislation" or something :p
