The Rauschenberg District Court (until 1867 Rauschenberg Justice Office ) was a court of ordinary jurisdiction with its seat in Rauschenberg in today's Marburg-Biedenkopf district in Hesse until 1943 .

history

In the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel , the Rauschenberg office took over the lower jurisdiction as was the administration.

The reorganization of the judiciary in the Kingdom of Westphalia in 1807 led to the separation of jurisdiction and administration. The canton of Rauschenberg was now responsible for administration, the Rauschenberg Peace Court for jurisdiction. The peace court was subordinate to the district court of Marburg , which was responsible for the district of Marburg .

With the end of the Kingdom of Westphalia in 1813, the separation of jurisdiction and administration was reversed and the Electorate of Hesse reintroduced the Rauschenberg office in 1814.

With an edict of June 29, 1821, administration and justice were separated in Kurhessen. Now judicial offices were responsible for the first instance jurisdiction, the administration was taken over by rural districts (here the district of Kirchhain ). The Rauschenberg judicial office was set up in Rauschenberg for the administration of justice.

After the annexation of Kurhessen by Prussia, the justice office became the royal Prussian district court of Rauschenberg in 1867.

The district court of Rauschenberg was closed in 1932. His district went up in the district of the Kirchhain district court .
