Courts since 1821

With an edict of June 29, 1821, administration and justice were separated in Kurhessen. Now judicial offices were responsible for the first instance jurisdiction, the administration was taken over by the districts. In Marburg, the Marburg district was set up to handle the administration and the Wetter Judicial Office was the court of first instance responsible for Göttingen. The Supreme Court was the Higher Appeal Court in Kassel . The higher court of Marburg was subordinate to the province of Upper Hesse. It was the second instance for the judicial offices.

After the annexation of Kurhessen by Prussia, the Marburg Justice Office became the Royal Prussian District Court of Wetter (Hesse) in 1867 . In June 1867, a royal ordinance was issued that reorganized the court system in the areas that belonged to the former Electorate of Hesse. The previous judicial authorities were to be repealed and replaced by local courts in the first, district courts in the second and an appeal court in the third instance. In the course of this, on September 1, 1867, the previous justice office was renamed the Wetter District Court. The courts of the higher authorities were the Marburg District Court and the Kassel Court of Appeal .

With the entry into force of the Courts Constitution Act of 1879, the district court continued to exist under his name. On June 14, 1943, the Wetter District Court had to cease its activities as an independent court. It was from June 15, 1943 at a branch of the district court of Marburg . On July 1, 1946, the branch was also closed. The district of the district court of Wetter merged with the district of the district court of Marburg.
