Straubing Regional Court

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Under the name Straubing Regional Court, there was an older Bavarian regional court with its seat in Straubing from 1806 to 1879 . After the Courts Constitution Act came into force in 1879, a regional court in the current sense was formed, which existed until 1932.

function

The older regional courts were judicial and administrative authorities in the Kingdom of Bavaria , which were replaced in their function as administrative authorities by the district offices in 1862 and in their function as courts by the local courts in 1879 . The regional courts formed from 1879 corresponded to the earlier Bavarian appellate courts as courts of second instance.

history

Appeals court and regional court of the older order

From 1802 to 1808 Straubing was the seat of one of the two electoral and from 1806 royal court courts and thus the seat of one of the central judicial and administrative authorities in Bavaria. The other city that held this status was Munich . Straubing lost its position as a judicial and government town through the territorial reform in the Kingdom of Bavaria from 1840 , but remained the seat of a regional court of the older order. In any case, from 1808 to 1840 it was only a court of appeal . When a court organization was introduced in Bavaria in accordance with the Courts Constitution Act in 1879, the old regional court was replaced by a district court .

The regional court under the Courts Constitution Act from 1879 to 1932

At the same time, a new regional court in Straubing was established as a court of second instance, whose district included the district courts of Beilngries , Straubing , Ellingen , Greding , Ingolstadt , Kipfenberg , Monheim , Pappenheim and Weißenburg . This was dissolved again in 1932 in the course of austerity measures by the Bavarian state government, so that the city has only been the seat of the local court since then .
