history

After the death of the Saxon King Friedrich August II , the abolition of patrimonial legislation was decreed under the government of his successor, King Johann, following the example of other states of the German Confederation . The centrally located district courts and court offices in almost all larger cities replaced the courts of the lowest instance that had previously existed in the city and state of the Kingdom of Saxony. The details of the administrative reform were regulated by the Saxon Court Constitution Act of August 11, 1855 and the ordinance on the formation of judicial districts of September 2, 1856.

The deadline for the entry into force of the new administrative structure in the Kingdom of Saxony was October 1, 1856. The newly formed court office Pausa was subordinate to the District Court of Zwickau.

All branches of civil and criminal jurisdiction in the soft cityscape were administered by the Pausa court office. The police and the police jurisdiction, however, with the exception of passport and foreign affairs, which were also administered by the Pausa court office, belonged to the mayor and the municipal council, to which the entire welfare, security, commercial and servant police as well as the guild system were subordinate.

After the restructuring of the court organization in accordance with the law on the organization of the authorities for internal administration of April 21, 1873, the administrative powers of the court offices were transferred to the reorganized or newly formed administrative authorities in 1874.

Since the previous royal court was called the royal court office, its board has held the title of court captain.

In the course of the restructuring of the Saxon court organization in accordance with the law on the organization of authorities for internal administration of April 21, 1873, the Pausa court office was integrated into the Plauen administrative authority, which was created in 1874 and is based in the city of Plauen .

The Pausa court office was replaced in 1879 by the newly established Pausa District Court on the basis of the law on the provisions for the implementation of the Courts Constitution Act in the German Reich of January 27, 1877 and the law on the jurisdiction of courts in matters of non-contentious jurisdiction of March 1, 1879.
