In my opinion this barret was used by judges and atttorneys from a Landesgericht (state court) and Amtsgericht (cantonal court), as well as at district courts. The one silver braid (post 3) stands in my opinion for the function Oberstaatsamwalt or Landesgericht-, or Amtsgerichtdirektor. Lower functions did wear the Spange (others two braids and eventually in gold). All of these did wear black. Note that with the barett NEVER an eagle was positioned.
The barett from post 1 with two golden cords is for a Präsident and Generalstaatsanwalt from an Oberlandesgericht (the highest court from a state).
Other courts did wear other colors: Reichsfinanzhof = winered; Reichswirtschaftsgericht = violet; Reichsgericht = darker red; Reichspatentamt = steel-blue; Volksgericht = lighter red; Reichserbhofgericht = royal blue. There were other courts (Reichsversicherungsamt and Reichsversorgungsgericht), but the color-scedule for them I have no information about (above information from Merkblatt from July 6, 1936).
Rick C: You know there are specific visored caps for NSDAP party-courts. But if they did wear a barett as from this post or what color is unknown too me. It is not mentioned in information about justice.
Judges from the courts were no political leaders, just judges. They could have however a political leaders rank and so had their "own" color (blue). The Oberstes Parteigericht was divided into I.Kammer
(lead by Grimm) and II. Kammer (the highest judge was Buch). Both had four assistants (Beisitzer). Before the organization from the party-court cases were done by the Untersuchungs- und
Schlichtungsausschuss, known as USchlA lead by Buch, which existed at local level, as well as Gau and Reich, but purely active for the SA and SS. I thought they existed since 1931.Last edited by wilhelm Saris; 08-01-2019, 04:25 AM.
