Life

Carl Traugott Kreyssig was born as the son of Johann Gottlieb Kreyssig, archdeacon at the Jakobikirche ; his brother was the Meissen teacher at the Princely School and philologist Johann Gottlieb Kreyssig .

Until 1795 he received lessons at home from the later rector of the Fürstenschule St. Afra in Meißen , Professor Christoph Gotthelf König (1765-1832) and from Pastor Claus in Schönwelcke. He attended the Lyceum in Chemnitz for four years ; his teachers there were Johann Gottfried Rothe and Johann Gottlieb Lessing (1732–1808). In June 1800 he began on the advice of his brother Johann Gottlieb Kreyssig (1779-1854), who was studying in Leipzig at the time and where he could live, at the age of 13 to study law at the University of Leipzig. He attended the lectures in philology with Professors Abraham Gottlieb Raabe , Christian Daniel Beck and Gottfried Hermann , in philosophy with Christian Gottlieb Seydlitz , Friedrich August Carus , Karl Theodor Gutjahr and Ernst Platner , in history with Christian Ernst Weisse and Ernst Karl Wieland , in jurisprudence with Christian Ernst Weisse, Christian Rau , Johann Gottfried Müller , Christian Daniel Erhard , Christian Gottlob Biener , Jakob Friedrich Kees (1750–1821) and Samuel Friedrich Junghans (1751–1819), but especially with Christian Gottlieb Haubold and Christian Gotthelf Hübner (1772–1808), with whom he had come into closer contact. In 1805, under Samuel Friedrich Junghans, he disputed legal issues, whereupon he passed his exams at the Faculty of Law and, after being appointed notary , returned to Chemnitz and began his practical career at the City Court. In 1807 he was admitted to legal practice and employed as an actuary at the courts in Neukirchen near Chemnitz; he held this office until the end of 1816.

On May 22, 1817, after defending his Disputation de auctorum et commentatorum verbis in Digestorum interpretatione distingnendis Observationes, he received the doctorate in law. He continued his work as a lawyer in Chemnitz until he was appointed to Dresden by a rescript of June 17, 1820 as a member of the royal court of appeal. By decree of November 18, 1826, he became a member of a deputation that dealt with the draft to remedy the deficiencies found in civil proceedings, while at the same time he remained employed at the court of appeal.

In 1831, following the publication of the constitutional charter, he was appointed to the Council of State to be established, but remained a member of the Court of Appeal until he was appointed to the Ministry of Justice by a ministerial decree of April 9, 1835, after the Court of Appeal was dissolved, with the character and title of a Secret Justice Council was moved; There he was mainly busy with the revision of the procedural rules and the drafting of several laws in the context of civil proceedings. He was also represented on the examination commission and shortly before his death was appointed advisor and royal commissioner on a new law for proceedings in civil matters up to 20 thalers.

Carl Traugott Kreyssig was married and had four children.
