Journal Article Justice in Lüritz Get access Inga Markovits Inga Markovits 1Inga Markovits is "Friends of Jamail" Regents' Chair in Law, The University of Texas. This essay is the forerunner to a book on the rise and fall of socialist law in the GDR, reflected in the daily work of one East German trial court and in the experiences of the court's staff and its users. The court, located in a town that I call "Lüritz", holds in its archive records that cover almost the entire life-span of the GDR. These records, supplemented with interviews in town, provide most of the information on which this article relies. Since under German law, court records are not publicly accessible, I will not include any case-identifications in these footnotes. I have also changed the names of all Lüritz citizens appearing in my story. Although they will remain anonymous, I am very grateful to the many eye witnesses to legal life in Lüritz without whose help this project could not have been carried out.
