MP

From 1843 to 1882 Otto had a seat in the Chamber of the Imperial Councils of Bavaria .

From 1841 to 1874 Otto was also a member of the Württemberg Chamber of Notaries . Otto's vote was inactive from 1862 to 1864 because the government questioned the status of the landed property in Württemberg (Dambach manor in the Oberamt Ellwangen). Since no final decision was made, Otto was again a member of the Chamber of Notaries from 1864. His membership ended in 1874 with the law on the abolition of the feudal association and the expiry of the princely feudal sovereignty over the Dambach manor.
