Scope and content

This series is comprised of High Court case files and administration records. Most of these records date from the German colonial period. The British Military Occupation force did not attempt to re-organise the records systems of the Imperial High Court offices, and was content to use the previous system to complete outstanding litigation and subsequent business. They are composed of three parts: cases brought for trial; general administrative records; and miscellaneous unnumbered records. Note: C-Private Complaints and Property Disputes: Box 7 Files C15/00 to Box 9 C127/04 have been listed individually. Further individual listing of the records in this series is planned.
