from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bartholomäus Leonhard von Schwendendörffer (born August 2, 1631 in Leipzig , † July 16, 1705 ibid) was a German legal scholar.

Life

The son of Leipzig law professor Georg Tobias Schwendendörffer (1597–1681) had attended high school in Leipzig and started studying at the University of Jena . After moving to the University of Leipzig , he became a licentiate in 1655 and a doctorate in law in 1656 . In the year of his doctorate, he took up a position as a lawyer at the Saxon High Court in Leipzig. In 1659 he became a professor at the law faculty for de Verb. S. & Regulis Juris and rose to the professorship of the institutions in 1660. In 1669 he became Professor of Digest and that same year Professor of Codex.

At the same time he was an assessor at the Leipzig Court of Justice and at the law faculty. In 1670 he became decemvir of the university, in 1699 senior of the Meißnischen Nation and 1708 canon at the Merseburg Abbey. He carried out these tasks until his death, which was caused by a dropsy. Schwendendörffer describe his contemporary witnesses as modest and soberly analytical people who, among other things, rejected the rectorate of the university that had been proposed to him. As a writer, Schwendendörffer was mainly active in procedural areas. He also participated in the drafting of the Saxon court and bill of exchange regulations.
