List of dishes in the realm of Alsace-Lorraine
This list represents the courts in the Reichsland Alsace-Lorraine from 1871 to 1918.
General
After Alsace-Lorraine was ceded to the German Reich in the Peace of Frankfurt in 1871, the court structure was re-regulated with the law on the amendment of the court constitution of July 14, 1871 and the implementing provisions for this from the same day.
The existing courts of appeal in Colmar and Metz were abolished and the Colmar Higher Appeal Court was newly established in their place . The existing eleven arrondissement courts were also repealed and their tasks were transferred to six regional courts as courts of first instance. The “justices de paix” of the French court system were retained - as in other areas on the left bank of the Rhine - as peace courts. However, of the last 95 cantonal justices de paix , only 76 were initially confirmed as places of jurisdiction. It was not until 1876 that 3 more peace courts each were added in the Lorraine district (Delme, Dieuze and Albesdorf) and in the Unterelsaß district (Drulingen, Sulz unterm Wald and Wörth).
On October 1, 1879, the changes to the Courts Constitution Act came into force. The entrance courts were now uniformly referred to as local courts in the Reich . The Higher Appeal Court in Colmar became the Higher Regional Court. In five cases, several district courts of justice were combined into one district court each.

List of local courts
After the establishment of the district courts in Rosheim, Erstein, Remilly, Rombach and Hayingen, the district court of Deutschoth was the last innovation in the administration of justice until the end of the war in 1918. This increased the number of district courts in the state from originally 72 to 78 over the course of 21 years.
After Alsace-Lorraine returned to France after the First World War , the local courts were renamed “tribunaux cantonaux” and the regional courts were renamed “tribunaux regionaux”, but their functions were largely retained. The Colmar Higher Regional Court also remained responsible for its previous district as cour d'appel. In 1931 another "regional tribunal" was established with its seat in Thionville (Diedenhofen). In 1940, during the Second World War, the German occupying forces continued the court structure that had been found using German place names and names of authorities - but taking into account the district border between Alsace and Lorraine.
