trial court Explanation: While "Spruch..." often but not always (cf Spruchkörper) indicates "arbitration", "...kammer" usually refers to the proper court system, rather than arbitration tribunals or panels. It is the court division/court panel (Kammer) that heard the case in the first instance and pronounced the judgment (Spruch), i.e. the trial court. Prof. exp. as German/NZ lawyer |

denazification court Explanation: Wait! Wait! Don't shoot, you guys. I know that this particular judgment was rendered in 1999, so I believe Darien is right. However, just for the sake of history, this is the name of the court to which we led the erstwhile members of the N.S.D.A.P. in 1945 and thereafter to be "de-nazified." A party member was called a PG (Parteigenosse), but we liked to point out that the meaning of PG had become changed in May 1945 to "pech gehabt." I was an agent for the U.S. counter intelligence corps in those days. |
