Preliminary remark: The files of the proceedings of the Regional Court came in several deliveries into the State Archives. 500 title records were recorded by the archive employee Seufer with the program MIDESTRA, which were converted after continuation of the recording by the archive employee Zeller with the program MIDOSA 95 likewise into the newer data format. The records were then sorted according to the original reference numbers. The relevant registers are in stock E 349. Only a few files have survived from the early years of the court, which was transformed from a district court to a regional court in 1879. Since the beginning of the First World War, the tradition has become denser. It reflects above all the development of white-collar crime, but also the political, criminal disputes in the run-up to the Third Reich.7363 tufts with 33.1 m.
