from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Franz Ferdinand Michael Stickel (born March 17, 1787 in Wetzlar , † September 21, 1848 in Wetzlar) was a German lawyer at the Imperial Court of Justice and legal scholar.

Audience at the Reich Chamber of Commerce in Wetzlar

Stickel grew up as the son of a businessman in the free imperial city of Wetzlar. After studying law , he practiced as a lawyer at the Imperial Court of Justice in 1806 . After the Reich Chamber Court was dissolved, the sovereign of the newly created County of Wetzlar , Karl Theodor von Dalberg , commissioned him with the conception and organizational preparation of a new university to be founded in Wetzlar. This should help mitigate the economic consequences of the court's closure. Stickel created a university model based on the French model; The Wetzlar Law School was opened as early as 1808 .

In the same year Stickel was appointed full professor at the Wetzlar School of Law. He received one of the six chairs at the school of law and taught French law there. Stickel was considered the real head and spiritual father of the Wetzlar law school.

After the legal school was closed in 1816, Stickel became a professor at the University of Giessen in 1817 and a member of the police deputation in 1820, until he retired in 1839.
