from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Franz Josef Rottels (born March 20, 1812 in Büttgen in the Neuss district ; † 1890 ) was a German judge .

Life

His older brother was the pedagogue Johann Theodor Rottels , who was active in the Görres district . In 1839 he was sworn in to the Prussian sovereign. Franz Josef Rottels and his older brother published the magazine “Kritische Blätter zur Judgment of the movements of our time in the field of religious, political and social life from the standpoint of Christianity” during his time as an assessor from 1846 to 1848. The paper ended in mid-1848 with the election of his brother to the Prussian state parliament in 1848. In the same year he became a regular assessor. In 1853 he was appointed district judge. In 1867 it was in Aachen. In 1868 he was promoted to the appellate judge. In 1871 the judge of appeal in Cologne became an Old Catholic . So he gave a lecture at the II. Congress of Old Catholics in Cologne in 1872. He was the protagonist of the petition of the Cologne Old Catholics in November 1871 to the Minister of War Roon to share the use of the St. Pantaleon Church, which was used as a garrison church . When the Cologne Old Catholics made use of this ministerial permit on February 2, 1872, Field Provost Franz Adolf Namszanowski instructed Pastor Lünnemann to avoid the church. Since he did not comply with the order of the Minister of War to undo this order with the approval of the Pope, this was another stage of escalation in the " Kulturkampf ", since the field provost was finally suspended. Despite the impending change of course in domestic politics ( Franckenstein's clause ), he was appointed councilor at the Prussian Higher Tribunal in 1878 and appointed to the new Imperial Court the next year . Until his retirement on June 1, 1882, he was a member of the Second Civil Senate of the Imperial Court .
