Serious offences' include those offences for which punishment under any law is imprisonment between 3 to 7 years. It include assault, robbery, murder, burglary etc.

The Investiture Controversy between the Holy Roman Emperor and the pope was Option B: who could appoint church officers, the secular emperor or the pope.
