German legal weblogs / Deutsche juristische Weblogs

Most sites that list international legal weblogs mention only two: Handakte WebLAWg by Rainer Langenhan, in German, and Walter Simon’s Simon’s Blawg (German with some English translations and summaries).
There is also one by Maximillian Dornseif, a postgraduate law student, in English, called disLEXia. His website gives more information about him, and the same goes for Langenhan and Simon.
Outside Germany is Professor Karl-Friedrich Lenz with Lenz Blog; he teaches German and European Law at a university in Tokyo.

These blogs contain a lot of interesting information on law relating to the Internet, not surprisingly. Not so another German blawg I found today: law blog by Udo Vetter, a German criminal lawyer. It consists of a series of little stories of everyday criminal defence and other episodes. Deserves to be quoted more often (all in German).

PROZESSORDNUNG

Hinweis eines Richters am Amtsgericht Herne:
„Die Versäumung richterlicher Fristen um weniger als 3 Werktage bleibt ohne Folgen, wenn die Partei darauf verzichtet, ihre Schriftsätze dem Gericht per Fax oder vorab per Fax zuzuleiten.“Die Idee ist ausbaufähig:
„Die Versäumung richterlicher Fristen um bis zu 5 Werktage bleibt ohne Folgen, wenn die Partei ihren Schriftsatz selbst locht, ihn persönlich vorbei bringt und an der richtigen Stelle in die Gerichtsakte einheftet.“
Oder:
„Die Partei, die am wenigsten schreibt, gewinnt den Prozess. Gefaxte Seiten zählen 5-fach.“’
(April 22nd)

Looking for the URL again, I find all listed at Saarbrücken. They also mention Der Jura-Channel, a legal news site, but without an RSS feed.

  1. Hi,
    you seem to be a detective too. Would be interesting for me how you found out my name. Or is it displayed somewhere in my blog?
    By the way: I have added your site to my private bookmarks an will visit it regularly.

  2. No, it isn`t displayed in the weblog. I am in the USA for a week at a legal translators` conference. I am using a wireless keyboard and TV Internet connection. I think I can answer your question better when I am back in Germany. Thanks for linking.
