Georg Adolf Sander, 1844.

Georg Adolf Sander (born April 20, 1801 in Karlsruhe , † March 9, 1845 in Rastatt ) was a German lawyer and liberal member of the Baden state parliament.

Life

Adolf Sander was born as the youngest son of the lawyer Christian August Sander (1752–1817), born in Köndringen , and Henriette Sophie nee. Lotzbeck (1764–1849) was born in Karlsruhe and baptized as a Protestant. His older brother was the machine manufacturer Ludwig Sander , who founded MAN 's predecessor plant in Augsburg . Sander studied law at the University of Heidelberg from 1818 to 1822 and after completing his studies initially worked as an assessor at the War Ministry, then from 1830 at the Meersburg Court of Justice . In 1835 he was promoted to court judge at the Rastatt court.

Adolf Sander was part of the liberal party in the Grand Duchy of Baden and was an elected member of the second chamber of the state parliament, the Baden Estates Assembly, from 1834 until his death in 1845 . He was there because of his eloquence as one of the most outstanding opposition liberal MPs. Due to his liberalism, he got into conflict with Minister of State Friedrich von Blittersdorf as a civil servant in the so-called "vacation dispute", in which the government no longer wanted to grant liberal civil servants elected to the state parliament, and subsequently resigned from civil service settled down as a freelance lawyer ("Bürgeranwalt") in Rastatt. Freed from the consideration as a civil servant, he developed radical liberal positions in the chamber and increasingly became a staunch opponent of the grand ducal government of Baden. His activity was ended by an early death and so he did not live to see the Baden Revolution of 1848/49, in the run-up to which he had worked.

Adolf Sander married Emilie Zimmermann (1806–1843) in Rastatt on September 5, 1835, the only child of the Potsdam court gardener Johann Bernhard Zimmermann, with whom he had six children and who died in childbed after the birth of twins. A son of Adolf Sander was Ferdinand , born in 1840 , later a tobacco manufacturer and national liberal politician.
