Theodor Christian Doerfler (born June 9, 1869 in Markt Berolzheim , † May 14, 1938 in Augsburg ) was a German lawyer and politician ( Völkischer Block ). Among other things, he was a member of the Bavarian State Parliament .

In his youth he attended elementary school and Latin school in Weißenfels as well as the grammar school in Erlangen . Like his father and brother Hans Doerfler before, he became a member of the Bubenreuther fraternity during his studies in Erlangen in the winter semester of 1888/89 . After studying law in Erlangen, Berlin and Munich, Dörfler embarked on a career in the judiciary; he became district judge in Ansbach, district judge and in 1925 senior judge in Munich. In 1931 he became regional court director in Augsburg .

In the state elections in 1924 , Doerfler was elected to the Bavarian state parliament in the district of Ansbach-Rothenburg o. T, Dinkelsbühl-Feuchtwangen, Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen, to which he was a member during the third electoral period ( until 1928 ).

In May 1925 the "National Social People's Union" (NSB) was founded (by Anton Drexler and several Munich city councilors and members of the state parliament of the Völkisch bloc). Drexler acted as 1st chairman, Theodor Doerfler (at that time Higher Regional Court counselor at the Higher Regional Court of Munich and Member of the State Parliament) as his deputy. At the beginning of 1927 the NSB dissolved and incorporated as the Bavarian State Association of the DVFP.

Doerfler also joined the German Volkish freedom movement.

He was also a member of the National Synod of the German Evangelical Church (DEK) and as such took part in the Barmen Confession Synod at the end of May 1934 , at which the Barmen Theological Declaration was adopted.
