origin

His parents were the Prussian lieutenant colonel Ferdinand von Martitz (1797–1858) and his wife Elisabeth von Rechenberg (1818–1880), who was the daughter of Ferdinand von Rechenberg and Henriette Arnauld de la Perière . Major General Johann Gabriel Arnauld de la Perière was his maternal grandfather.

life and work

He studied law in Leipzig and Königsberg and received his doctorate in 1861 with a dissertation on the professional law of the Sachsenspiegel . In 1864 he completed his habilitation as a student of Wilhelm Albrecht with a thesis on the marital property law of the Sachsenspiegel and the related legal sources. The first appointment to a chair led him to Freiburg im Breisgau in 1872 , in 1875 he moved to Tübingen , and in 1898 finally to Berlin .

In Tübingen, Martitz held courses on general and German constitutional law, international law and police law. His lectures also included the history of political theories. Martitz dedicated himself to international law issues since 1868 and dealt with the constitution of the North German Confederation .

Through his work as an expert in international law matters for the German Reich and his membership in the Institut de Droit international (IDI) , he helped shape contemporary positive international law.

His work on international mutual legal assistance in criminal matters appeared in two volumes in 1888 and 1897 and has influenced European extradition law to the present day. The German Federal Constitutional Court Martitz was for. B. cited in the judgment on the European arrest warrant in 2004 and in the Lisbon judgment of 2009. Martitz was Rudolf von Gneist's successor as a member of the First Senate of the Kgl. Prussian Higher Administrative Court in Berlin.
