Oberlandesgericht






Interior of the Cologne OLG


An Oberlandesgericht (plural – Oberlandesgerichte; OLG, English: Higher State Court,[notes 1] or in Berlin Kammergericht: KG) is a higher court in Germany.


There are 24 OLGs in Germany. They are positioned above state courts (Landgerichte) and below the Federal Court of Justice (Bundesgerichtshof), in family and child law above the district courts (Amtsgericht) and below the Federal Court of Justice. In criminal cases that are under primary jurisdiction of the Federal Court of Justice (i.e., cases concerning the national security), the Oberlandesgerichte act as a branch of the Federal Court of Justice, that is, as "lower federal courts" ("Untere Bundesgerichte").


The OLGs deals with civil and criminal matters.
In the Oberlandesgerichte, the offices of the "Generalstaatsanwaltschaft" or general district attorney are located.


The OLG Düsseldorf is one of the most popular patent trial forums for patentees in Europe.[1]


The Oberlandesgerichte were first set up in the German Empire by the Courts Constitution Act of 27 January 1877. In Prussia, there had been Oberlandesgerichte as the higher provincial courts since 1808, known as "Regierung" from 1723 to 1808.

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
