The cover price of the weekly magazine El Juevez is $3. 46, but copies but were seen on a Spanish eBbay website selling for up to $138 per copy. High Court Judge Juan del Olmo said last Friday that the cartoon "struck at the honor and the dignity of the people represented" has ordered authorities to confiscate and apprehend all news stands that sells the copy of the magazine. The current government in Spain announced that each new born child in a family will receive $3500. 00 to raise the birth rate in Spain.

In the caricature, Prince Felipe was seen smiling and telling his wife Princess Letizia, "Do you realize that if you get pregnant it will be the closest that I come to working in my life!" Under Spanish law, anyone found guilty of insulting and mocking the royal family can face up to two years in prison and be slapped with substantial fines.
