Life

The Catholic Zeiler passed the legal state examinations in 1890 and 1893 with the grade "passed". In 1894 he was a lawyer for half a year. Then he was a legal trainee at the Neuburg District Court in 1894 and then in 1895 at the Public Prosecutor's Office at the Munich District Court I. In 1895 he was appointed III. Public prosecutor at the regional court in Deggendorf. In 1897 he became a district judge at the Augsburg district court. In 1899 he came to Kempten as second public prosecutor at the public prosecutor's office at the regional court. In 1902 he became a district judge there. In 1910 he was promoted to first public prosecutor and transferred to the district court in Zweibrücken in Bavaria on the left bank of the Rhine. In October 1918 he was appointed higher regional judge in Zweibrücken. In September 1919 he came to the Reichsgericht. He was active in civil and criminal senates at the Imperial Court. He retired in 1935.

His book, “My Co-operation”, which he wrote after retirement, is considered to be one of the “notable judges' books” and is largely a sober accountability report. In it, he exhaustively describes his work as a judge and legal scholar with extensive literature references. He was particularly involved in the issue of a revaluation case law . After retirement he lived in Offingen.
