Bailiff
Bailiff is an outdated term for a person employed as a servant in a court of law .
According to the official titles and titles in the Codex Iustinianus , the executing law enforcement officers were referred to as agents in rebus at the court . This name in turn goes back to the imperial messenger riders of Roman antiquity. In medieval criminal proceedings there were bailiffs who carried out the so-called screams or screams. In the 17th and 18th centuries was bluestocking carried a nickname for the officers, often blue stockings.
According to the Courts Constitution Act (GVG), judicial police officers are now responsible for meeting police officers (§§ 176 ff. GVG). Legal clerks and clerks are employed in the offices of the courts and public prosecutors who, together with the presiding judge, also prepare the minutes of the meeting. This also applies in principle to the proceedings before the Federal Constitutional Court ( Section 17 BVerfGG ). The magistrates working there open the door to the conference room at the beginning of an oral hearing, ask those present and the public to rise and announce the appearance of the judges with the words "The Federal Constitutional Court."
The bailiffs at the United States Supreme Court (Marshalls) traditionally open the session.
