Life

Börtzler was the son of the pastor Fritz Börtzler. He spent most of his school days in Kaiserslautern . In the summer semester of 1928 he enrolled at the Julius Maximilians University of Würzburg for law. Like many people from the Rhineland Palatinate since 1842 , he was active in the Corps Rhenania Würzburg . In that semester, the HKSCV decided to move sports education more into the focus of active operations. At the Würzburg University Championships, Börtzler won the 400-meter run "with a respectable lead". Rhenania won the main competition, the 4 x 100 meter relay , with Börtzler as the final runner in 47.0 seconds . With his “slightly pedantic-meticulous style” he distinguished himself as a sub-senior in the 4th active semester . When he was inactive , he moved to the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich . After he had passed the trainee exam in Würzburg in 1933 and the assessor examination in Munich in 1935, he entered the Bavarian judicial service. Called up for the army , he suffered several wounds in the western campaign , especially his right hand. He was released home with the Iron Cross II. Class. Back in the judiciary, he got caught in the turmoil at the end of the war. The denazifications sometimes dragged on for years, especially in the American zone of occupation . In this situation Börtzler came to Hanns Jacobsen for a few years . Finally back in the judicial service, he became government director in the Bavarian State Ministry of Justice . On December 11, 1959, he came to the Federal Court of Justice in Karlsruhe as a federal judge . He was mainly active in the 4th Criminal Senate of the Federal Court of Justice and shaped traffic law and extradition law . He worked in the attorney and notary senate as well as in the patent attorney senate. For many years he sat in the Grand Senate for Criminal Matters. From 1965 to the beginning of 1967 he was a member of the 3rd Criminal Senate of the Federal Court of Justice , which is responsible for state security. Börtzler retired on December 31, 1977. After the death of his wife in 1979, he moved to a residential building in Karlsruhe, where he died at the age of 83. In temperament and language, he remained a Palatinate throughout his life. When he was buried on April 23, 1993, Hannskarl Salger gave the eulogy.
