history

In 1792 the troops of revolutionary France conquered the Rhineland and also occupied Pfeddersheim. With a law of March 30, 1793, the National Convention decided to annex the left bank of the Rhine . On December 4, 1795 (44 frimaire IV), Rudler passed the law on administration and judicial organization in the four departments on the left bank of the Rhine . This made the French court constitution law Loi des 16 et 24 août 1790 sur l'organization judiciaire from 1790, which provided for the establishment of cantonal peace courts, also made binding for Pfeddersheim. However, this did not have any practical effects, as the First Coalition War was still ongoing and Pfeddersheim was not occupied by the French at all at that time. Pfeddersheim was not occupied by the French again until 1797. The annexation of the Rhineland was confirmed in the Peace of Campo Formio in October 1797. In 1798 the French built up the administrative structures in the conquered areas and set up the Pfeddersheim Peace Court , which was responsible for the canton of Pfeddersheim . In 1801, the justice of the peace Reiling worked as a single judge in Pfeddersheim. The peace court was subordinate to the department court in the department Donnersberg with seat in Mainz . The highest court was the court of appeal in Trier .

With the Treaty of Lunéville , the annexation of the left bank of the Rhine by France was confirmed. During the French era , the consulate passed a law on June 30, 1802, to introduce the French constitution and all administrative legislation in the annexed areas. With the Circumscription (circular) of January 28, 1803 ( 8. Pluviose XI ), the scope of the canton and thus the judicial district of the Magistrate's Court was finally established. The judicial district remained largely unchanged until 1878.

After the reconquest in the Wars of Liberation , the region was administered from 1814 to 1816 by the Austro-Baier Community Provincial Administration Commission . This let the peace courts exist, but on July 27, 1815 set up the court of appeal in Kreuznach as a higher court.

The Grand Duchy of Hesse , which Rheinhessen received as part of an area swap in 1816, also took over the structure of the courts in the province of Rheinhessen . However, the Court of Appeal in Kreuznach was dissolved and a provisional Higher Court in Mainz with the "Provisional Appeal and Cassation Court Regulations for the Grand Ducal Hessian part of the state on the left bank of the Rhine" issued on November 4, 1815.

The Pfeddersheim Peace Court was now one of twelve peace courts that were subordinate to the Mainz District Court . After the division of the Mainz District Court into the Mainz and Alzey District Courts on December 1, 1836, Pfeddersheim came to the jurisdiction of the Alzey District Court. The German Revolution of 1848/1849 also led to the separation of the administration of justice in the Grand Duchy of Hesse . However, this did not affect the province of Rheinhessen, where this separation had already taken place during the French era.

The Courts Constitution Act of January 27, 1877 was introduced in the Grand Duchy of Darmstadt with the Grand Ducal Hessian Act of September 3, 1878 and the Implementing Ordinance of May 14, 1879. The Pfeddersheim Peace Court was converted into a district court on October 1, 1878. It was subordinate to the Mainz Regional Court and the Darmstadt Higher Regional Court .

In 1933, the Pfeddersheim District Court was the second smallest of the 11 district courts in the Main District Court district. On June 1, 1934, the Pfeddersheim District Court (and the Nieder-Olm District Court in Rheinhessen ) was dissolved. The main part of the judicial district came to the Worms District Court .
