Karl Friedrich Theodor Becherer , von Becherer since 1840 , (born December 9, 1823 in Mainz , † March 3, 1883 in Wolfhagen ) was a German administrative officer.

Life

Becherer was the son of the major and manor owner in Klein-Mehßow Karl von Becherer and his wife Laura nee Hufeland. He married Maria von Berneck from Frankfurt an der Oder on December 9, 1823. The marriage remained childless.

Theodor von Becherer initially received private lessons and from 1837 attended the grammar school in Potsdam. In 1841 he moved to the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Gymnasium in Berlin, where he passed his Abitur on March 15, 1845. He then studied law at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg . In 1846 he became a member of the Corps Saxo-Borussia Heidelberg . He later continued his studies in Berlin. On August 12, 1848, he passed his first state examination (“good”) in Frankfurt an der Oder and began his legal clerkship at the Lübben district and city ​​court and the Naumburg / Saale court of appeal. There he passed his second state examination (“according to regulations”) on August 1, 1850. From October 30, 1850 he was an appellate trainee there and was then transferred to the district court of Erfurt.

After a gun duel in which Becherer had killed his opponent, he was sentenced on September 17, 1851 to two years in prison. Later the sentence on the mercy path was shortened to six months, which he served at the Magdeburg fortress. With that he automatically lost his admission to the judicial service.

On April 27, 1852 he was again admitted to the judicial service and transferred to the Naumburg District Court. He then worked in the public prosecutor's office and with a lawyer and was again admitted to the Great State Examination on July 29, 1854. He passed the oral exam with “sufficient”, but the necessary scientific work failed in several attempts. He was given leave of absence on February 10, 1857 and finally resigned from the judicial service on April 30, 1859 because he had exceeded his vacation.

Becherer traveled to Buenos Aires, where he unsuccessfully applied for a job at the Prussian Consul General, then to Australia, where he was superintendent of a large landowner. In November 1871 he returned to Germany and was appointed acting chancellor of the Imperial Consulate in Moscow on November 24, 1871. In this office he was until his release on April 30, 1873. After that he was an unskilled worker in the Foreign Office in Berlin.

On April 18, 1873 he entered the administrative service. On December 3, 1873 he was provisional bailiff of the Montabaur office , from April 12, 1876 in the Vöhl office . On March 1, 1877 he became a permanent bailiff. On April 4, 1879, he was temporarily appointed District Administrator of the Wolfhagen district. After he had passed the district administrator exam with the Kassel government on June 19, 1880, he received the definitive appointment as district administrator on July 7, 1880. He held the office until his death in 1883.
