District Court Limburg
The District Court of Limburg was a court of ordinary jurisdiction between 1867 and 1879 in Limburg an der Lahn, then Prussia, and one of three district courts in the Wiesbaden administrative district .
With Section 12 of the ordinance of February 22, 1867, the separation of administration and justice was ordered after Nassau was annexed by Prussia . This was not the case in the Duchy of Nassau . The offices were both administrative districts and courts of first instance. With ordinances of June 26, 1867 and August 21, 1867, the judicial function was transferred to the newly created local courts. District courts were created in Dillenburg , Limburg and Wiesbaden , and the higher-level appeal court of Wiesbaden was created in Wiesbaden .
