history

In 1802 four court courts were formed from the Hofrat in Munich and the governments in Straubing , Amberg and Neuburg . In this way, the separation of administration and jurisdiction was implemented at the middle level. In 1803 the court courts of Bamberg and Würzburg and in 1804 a court court for Swabia were established. The following court courts passed:

Through the Organic Edict on the Judicial System of July 24, 1808, Part III, the court courts were replaced by courts of appeal. On January 1, 1809, they started work. You were second in civil court cases and first in embarrassing court cases.

In 1810 the kingdom was divided into nine districts based on the Paris Treaties. A court of appeal was set up for each district. In 1817 the number of districts and thus the appellate courts was reduced to eight. In 1873 the appellate courts for Upper Palatinate and Middle Franconia were combined in Nuremberg and those for Upper and Lower Franconia in Bamberg.

With the law of July 1, 1856, the judicial system in Bavaria was reorganized. The previous district and city courts were repealed and 34 new district courts , modeled on the Palatinate , took their place. The appellate courts thus became the appeal instance for the decisions of the district courts. 1879 existing at this time was of appeal with the exception of Passau in Oberlandesgerichte converted.

The appeals courts ruled in senates with five members each. From 1818 to 1857 there was a separate Senate for Fideikomißsache . From 1809 to 1869 a senate for mining law matters and until 1875 at the court of appeal in Bamberg (made up of Protestant judges) a senate for disputed matrimonial matters of Protestants and dissidents. In the Zweibrücken Court of Appeal, founded in 1817 (responsible for the Palatinate), French jurisdiction (civil law until 1900) applied.
