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 take care of the administration as well as the judiciary, finally became officially effective on September 29, 1855, whereby the judicial district Wiznitz from the communities Wysznitz with Bahna, Czernohoże, Rewna and Wiszeńka, Berhometh am Sereth with Łopuschna, Mihodra , Czireszdenka, Mazury, Schipot with Bursekeu, Ispas, Łukawetz am Sereth with Maydan, Meschibrod with Podzachariez, Mihowa with Mega and Millie. As part of the separation of the political from judicial administration made the judicial district Wiznitz from 1868 together with the judicial district Putilla the district Wiznitz . As of March 28, 1870, as part of a reform of the judicial districts, there were extensive territorial changes between the judicial districts of the Bukowina, whereby the judicial district of Wiznitz was expanded by the reform to include the communities Zeleneu with Plesnitza and Samsonowka as well as the associated estate from the judicial district Stanestie . From the municipalities and associated estates of Waszkoutz am Czermosz, Russian-Banilla, Słobodiza-Banilla, Karapcziu, Willawcze and Zamostie of the judicial district of Wiznitz, the judicial district of Waschkoutz am Czeremosch emerged on November 1, 1898 , but left the district of Wiznitz on October 1, 1903 and merged with the judicial district Stanestie from the district Storozynetz to the district Waschkoutz am Czeremosch .

The judicial district of Wiznitz had a population of 14,910 people in an area of ​​11.0 square miles in 1854. In 1869 the judicial district housed a population of 42,543 people, by 1890 the population increased to 51,991 people, after which the population fell again to 36,671 people through the creation of the judicial district of Waschkoutz am Czeremosch.
