What is a succinct translation of Gerichtsoberoffizial? On the Yahoo Groups Bukowina list service an explanation of Gerichtsoberoffizial was presented but a "simple" translation is needed. The term Gerichtsoberoffizial appears here: http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/ _______ Lavrentiy Krupniak

Literally translated it means: Gerichts: of the Court Ober: High or upper Offizial: Official (of the legal system) Upper official of the Court. This position is not a supreme judge, because Judge would be "Richter" ..... I cannot find it in the Oxford Duden German dictionary, but there might be a special legal terminology dictionary somewhere. For this I would inquire at a library, Laury, they may have better sources. Or, perhaps there might be a German lawyer here on our list who could give us a more specific equivalent English.

Maybe an administrator, one who schedules the court activities and trials. We have them here in the USA.

Perhaps I could help a little: A "Gerichtsoberoffizial" was the highest rank of a clerk at the court Ranks downwards: Gerichtsoffizial (Gerichtsoberinpektor) (Gerichtsinspektor) Will be interested in the English equivalent Walter -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Aida Kraus Gesendet: Freitag, 17.
