District Court Orb

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Orb Regional Court was an older Bavarian regional court (1802 to 1862) that existed from 1814 to 1866 and was based in Orb (since 1909: Bad Orb ) in what is now the Main-Kinzig district in Hesse . In the Kingdom of Bavaria , the regional courts were judicial and administrative authorities, which were replaced in administrative terms (administrative unit) in 1862 by the district offices and in 1879 in legal terms (judicial body) by the local courts .

history

On October 1, 1814, the regional court of Orb was established in the course of the administrative restructuring of Bavaria . This came in 1817 to the newly founded Untermainkreis , the forerunner of the later administrative district of Lower Franconia . In 1824 it said: The district court of Orb includes the town of Orb, the hamlets of Friedrichsthal and Hausen , the villages of Wirtheim , Kassel , Höchst , Aufenau , Neudorf , Lettgenbrunn and Vilbach , the manorial estates of Kinzighausen and Niederhof, the Altenburg farm, and finally the inheritance -Good to Marborn in Kurhessen . By the highest resolutions of June 30, 1828 and January 8 and 14, 1829, the Orb district court was assigned the localities of Aura, Mittelinn, Obersinn, Pfaffenhausen, Deutelsbach, Oberndorf, Burgjoss and Meinerts from the dissolved Aura district court . In 1862 the district office of Gemünden was formed from the regional courts of Orb and Gemünden. After the German War in 1866, the Kingdom of Bavaria ceded the former regional court district of Orb, with the exception of Aura, to the Kingdom of Prussia on the basis of the peace treaty of August 22, 1866 .

Administrative unit

Municipalities and the district boundary of the Gelnhausen district from 1866–1946. Orange border line: Orb district (municipalities with special status) from 1866 to 1886

As a result of the peace treaty, the district came to Prussia as a territorial unit, but initially it remained a special administrative district for 20 years until the new district regulations came into force on April 1, 1886: “similar to the administrative districts in the former Duchy of Nassau ... as narrower administrative districts exist ”... and“ for the same ”[each]“ a district official who is subordinate to the respective district administrator was appointed ... who is to carry the title of bailiff and whose competence is to be determined by special instructions ”. Initially, the Bavarian municipal constitutional laws continued to apply.

Judicial body

In addition, the court became Prussian as the judicial authority (Orb District Court). The court of next instance was the district court in Hanau . After the Reich Justice Acts came into force in 1879, the Hanau Regional Court became the next-level court. In 1909 the name was changed to Bad Orb District Court . On June 15, 1943, the court was overturned and its court district was assigned to the Gelnhausen District Court . Since autumn 1945 the Bad Orb district court was again an independent district court. On July 1, 1968 it was finally repealed.
