Arnold Nöldeke (politician)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arnold Karl Heinrich Nöldeke (born August 22, 1865 in Kiel , † February 24, 1945 in Tübingen ) was a judge and Hamburg politician of the German Democratic Party (DDP).

Life and politics

Nöldeke was a son of the orientalist Theodor Nöldeke and grew up in Kiel and Strasbourg . Nöldeke studied law in Strasbourg , Munich and Göttingen . Here he was u. a. Member of the Georgia Augusta Student Choral Society . From 1887 he was trainee lawyer in Strasbourg and magistrate in the district of Upper Alsace . In 1894 he became a district judge in Hamburg before he held the office of higher regional judge from 1910 to 1919. Nöldeke was next to Leo Lippmann u. a. involved in the publication of the third edition of the Hamburg laws and ordinances .

From 1907 Nöldeke was a member of the Hamburg citizenship , initially as a member of the faction of the United Liberals . From 1919 to 1931 he was a member of the parliament for the left-liberal DDP. Until his election as senator, he was chairman of the DDP parliamentary group.

On December 10, 1919, Nöldeke was elected to the Senate by the citizens as successor to Bruno Louis Schaefer . He held the office until September 15, 1931 (→  Hamburg Senate 1919–1933 ). Nöldeke was President of the Hamburg Justice Administration and thus headed the authority that had previously been headed by Schaefer. After Nöldeke resigned because of a downsizing of the Senate, Mayor Carl Wilhelm Petersen took over this position.

In 1931, Nöldeke was one of the supporters of the ambitious Curt Rothenberger alongside mayor Carl Wilhelm Petersen and thus helped him to the office of regional court director. The National Socialist convictions of Rothenberger were apparently not yet pronounced at this point in time.

Honor

Others

In February 1926 the KPD citizenship deputy Karl Jahnke physically attacked Nöldeke during a citizenship meeting after he had called the KPD politician Hugo Urbahns a “criminal”; after this incident, Jahnke left the state parliament.
