history

In the course of the reorganization of the judiciary in the Austrian Empire, the general principles of the court system in the crown lands were approved by Emperor Franz Joseph I in June 1849 . Justice Minister Anton von Schmerling then had plans to organize the judiciary in Bukovina drawn up, which the emperor also approved by ordinance on November 6, 1850. The reorganization went hand in hand with the abolition of the princely courts as well as the patrimonial courts , with Schmerling originally planning the establishment of 17 district courts and the Bukovina to be subordinated to the Stanislau Higher Regional Court . In the end, the authorities created only 15 district courts, which were assigned to the Chernivtsi Regional Court and the Lemberg Higher Regional Court . The establishment of the mixed district offices, which had to look after the administration as well as the judiciary, finally became officially effective on September 29, 1855, whereby the judicial district Sereth from the communities Sereth, Bahrynesti, Baincze, Balkoutz, Banczesti, Botuszanitzam Czerepkoutz with Beresti, Cibeny, Segits, Fontinaalba, Gerboutz, Graniczesti, Hadikfalva with Turnesti, Kalafindesti, Kindesti, Kilmoutz, Muszenitza, Negostina, St. Onufri with Drapuszanka, Oprischeny, Rogoschesti with Gura molonitza, Rudesti, Scherhoutz, Ober-Synoutz, lui Dumka, Tereblesti, Waszkoutz am Seret with Percelowka and Wolczinetz. For crimes and offenses, the judicial district was subordinate to the investigative court or district court in Radautz. In the course of the separation of the political from the judicial administration, the Sereth judicial district also formed the Sereth district of the same name from 1868 onwards . As of March 28, 1870, in the course of a reform of the judicial districts, there were extensive territorial changes between the judicial districts of Bukowina, with the judicial district of Sereth through the reform to the communities Dymka, Hliboka, Mihuczeni, Pojeni, Preworokie, Ober-Stanestie, Unterstanestie, Terescheni and whose associated manor areas from the judicial district of Chernivtsi and the municipality of Kamenka with the associated manor area from the judicial district of Storozynetz were expanded.

The Sereth Judicial District had a population of 25,372 in 1854 in an area of ​​6.6 square miles. In 1869 the judicial district housed a population of 46,929 people, by 1900 the population had increased to 60,743 people.
