District Court Mattighofen

The judicial district Mattighofen is the District Court Mattighofen under standing judicial district in the political district of Braunau am Inn ( State of Upper Austria ). The judicial district, along with the judicial district of Braunau am Inn, is one of two judicial districts in the political district of Braunau am Inn.

history

The judicial district goes back to the "Mattighofen Court", which was originally under the Duchy of Bavaria and was part of the Braunau nursing court . In the course of the War of the Bavarian Succession , Bavaria had to cede the Innviertel to Austria through the Treaty of Teschen in 1779 . The area subsequently became part of Austria ob der Enns .

Originally only the municipalities Auerbach , Feldkirchen bei Mattighofen , Jeging , Kirchberg bei Mattighofen , Lengau , Lochen am See , Maria Schmolln , Mattighofen , Munderfing , Palting , Perwang am Grabensee , Pfaffstätt , Pischelsdorf am Engelbach , St. Johann am Walde and were subordinate to the district court Bowl . In addition, in 1898 the judicial district of Mauerkirchen ceded the localities of Breitenberg, Bucheck, Gstocket, Haslau, Schweigesreit, Sollach and Winkelpoint (at that time the Höhnhart community) to the newly formed community of Maria Schmolln in the Mattighofen judicial district.

With the district court ordinance of the Austrian federal government on November 12, 2002, the resolution of the judicial district Wildshut and the assignment of the area to the judicial district Mattighofen was resolved. The ordinance came into force on January 1, 2005. Since 2005, the judicial district of Mattighofen has therefore also included the communities of Eggelsberg , Franking , Geretsberg , Haigermoos , Hochburg-Ach , Moosdorf , Ostermiething , St. Pantaleon , St. Radegund and Tarsdorf .

According to the President of the Higher Regional Court, Johannes Payrhuber , the closure of district courts discussed in terms of the administrative reform and budget savings does not affect the Mattighofen location , since Mattighofen, unlike other district courts, has three judicial posts.
