He went through all stages of his legal career, as a public prosecutor, a district judge, was a lawyer for a while and then came to the Hanseatic Higher Regional Court, where he was last President of the Senate. He was also a member of the citizenry, trained young lawyers, sat for many years on the commission for the drafting of the new penal code, and still read and held Practica at the new university. He was born in Hanover. Hanover should produce the best lawyers, he once said in confidence. Since he is a particularly affectionate old corps student, even as soon as his time allowed, he was again an active member of the AC, he should be particularly honored. In 1926 he was made an honorary member of the AC .. "
