Altenkirchen District Court
The Altenkirchen District Court was a Prussian district court based in Altenkirchen .
prehistory
In the Congress of Vienna in 1816, extensive area swaps were agreed with Prussia . On May 31, 1815, Orange ceded the hereditary lands to Prussia. This and the Niedergrafschaft Katzenelnbogen were given to the Duchy of Nassau, most of the administrative district of Ehrenbreitstein and smaller other areas were given to Prussia.
In Prussia, the Ehrenbreitstein Justice Senate was appointed by cabinet order of May 4, 1820 as the Higher Court for the right bank of the Rhine region of the Koblenz administrative district in the Rhine Province . It was now in the second instance responsible for a large number of state and patrimonial courts. The Wetzlar City Court and seven state justice offices were subordinate to him . Furthermore, there were three princely Solms, two princely Neuwied, three princely Wied-Runkel and one princely Hatzfeld patrimonial courts of first instance in the judicial district. From 1828 there was also a patrimonial court of second instance with the Princely Solms-Braunfels government for the Solms offices. As such it was subordinate to the Berlin Higher Tribunal .
history
After the March Revolution , the Altenkirchen district court was established in Altenkirchen in 1849. It was subordinated to the Ehrenbreitstein Justice Senate (together with the Wetzlar District Court and the Neuwied District Court ). Neuwied was the seat of the Neuwied jury court , which was responsible for all three district courts.
The following court commissions were also subordinate to the Altenkirchen District Court:
