Life

Denecke was born as the son of the railway secretary Hermann Denecke and Louise b. Rooster born. He passed his Abitur in 1904 in Magdeburg. He then studied law for six semesters. He passed the first state law examination in Naumburg in 1907 with the grade “passed”, the second in 1913 with “good”. In 1908/09 he performed his military duties as a one-year volunteer . He was drafted into the army on August 3, 1914 and served in the military until December 20, 1918, most recently as a lieutenant in the reserve.

In June 1920 he came to the Dortmund Regional Court as a judge. In part-time he was chairman of the arbitration committee for Dortmund and at times of the tariff committee for the Ruhr coal district. In 1927 he became regional court director and at the same time chairman of the regional labor court in Dortmund.

After 1945, the unmarried Denecke stayed in Leipzig for a while. With the entry into force of the Labor Court Act in September 1953, a “lex Denecke” was inserted into its Section 119 . As a result, the Federal Labor Court should be in the continuity of the Reich Labor Court, in that Denecke could also serve as a federal judge beyond the usual age limit. On May 28, 1954, he became a federal judge. On December 31, 1956, he finally had to retire on the basis of Section 119.
