Office of People Mountain

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Amt Leutenberg was a judicial and administrative district in the Schwarzburg-Rudolstädter Oberherrschaft with its seat in Leutenberg .

history

The office of people mountain was acquired in 1208 by the Schwarzburg counts from the imperial estate as an imperial fief. In 1274 it belonged to Schwarzburg-Schwarzburg, 1361 to Schwarzburg-Leutenberg, 1564 to Schwarzburg-Blankenburg and since 1574 to Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt.

scope

The Volksberg office comprised the following locations:

tasks

The Volksberg office was initially a court of first instance and, at the same time, a lower administrative authority. There was no separation of jurisdiction from administration .

The March Revolution also led in Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt to the demand for the abolition of the patrimonial courts and the separation of judiciary and administration.

On July 1, 1850, the organizational laws came into force, which fundamentally changed the judiciary. The legal basis was the law on the future administration of justice of May 1, 1850 and the law on the jurisdiction of courts and the appeal of civil disputes. The patrimonial courts were abolished and administration and jurisdiction separated.

The Menschenberg office was now a purely judicial office, i.e. a court of first instance with a judicial officer as the single judge. The District Court of Rudolstadt stood above it . The administrative tasks were transferred to the newly created District Office in Rudolstadt .

In the reaction era , the separation of jurisdiction and administration was called into question again for reasons of cost. The ordinance on the organization of the lower state administrative authorities of May 1, 1858 repealed the district offices and assigned the administrative tasks to the judicial offices. At the request of the state parliament, the district offices were re-established by a law of February 7, 1868 and the courts were again released from administrative duties.

As part of the introduction of the Reich Justice Laws , the Leutenberg Office was converted into the Leutenberg District Court .
