Higher Appeal Court Coburg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Higher Appeal Court in Coburg was the Higher Appeal Court from 1806 to 1808 and thus the highest court in Saxony-Coburg-Saalfeld with its seat in Coburg .

With the formation of the Rhine Confederation , the HRR ended in 1808, and with it the Reichskammergericht as the highest court. In Saxony-Coburg-Saalfeld, the organization patent dated September 22, 1806, ordered the establishment of the Coburg Higher Appeal Court. The judicial college was subordinate to this as the intermediate instance, which had received organizational independence on March 5, 1804 (previously the state government was also the intermediate court, the separation of the judiciary from the administration was not given).

The President of the Court of Appeal was Albrecht Anton Franz Hofmann . In 1808 the leading minister Karl Theodor von Kretschmann was replaced in Sachsen-Coburg-Saalfeld . The new government dissolved the Higher Appeal Court. From 1808 to the establishment of the joint higher appeal court in Jena in 1817, files were sent for appeals in Saxony-Coburg-Saalfeld.
