The President of the Bremen District Court
The President of the Hamburg Local Court
In view of the present situation I issue the following instructions in agreement with the attorney general:
I
A meeting of the presidents will be held at my office every week at which the presidents of the district courts of Hamburg and Bremen and of the Hamburg local court as well as my expert adviser will be present. The attorney general and the Chief Public Prosecutors with the district courts of Hamburg and Bremen have promised to attend whenever the cases under discussion are of special interest to them.
On the basis of brief written notes containing the titles, file numbers, and a few key words of the matter to be discussed the presidents in the course of this meeting will report on the important decisions which were passed in penal and civil cases during the preceding week as well as on the essential penal and civil cases to be tried in the following week.
The attorney general as well as the Chief Public Prosecutors will also bring up for discussion important preliminary investigations, submitted to the attorney general during the preceding week.
Outside of these regular meetings the presidents will immediately report to me matters of special importance and urgency.
II
For the purpose of procuring the material I request the presidents to have the criminal and civil divisions and chambers submit brief reports to them every week in the form of a review and a summing up of important pending penal and civil cases, which, if necessary, will have to be supplemented by verbal reports.
