Bernhard Friedrich Brandis (born 15 January 1875 in Dehradun, India) was a German supreme court justice.
As of 1914, he was a judge on a regional court.[1] He was appointed as a judge (Reichsgerichtsrat) on the Imperial Court of Justice in 1929 and left or was removed from the office in 1935. His former law clerk Ernst Eduard Hirsch described him as "brought up to be a gentleman" and highly erudite.[2][3]
He grew up in India, and was a son of the botanist and forestry administrator Sir Dietrich Brandis, the Inspector General of Forests of India, and Lady Katharina Brandis, known as Kate. His father had joined the British civil service in India in 1856. The family lived in Calcutta and in Simla during the summer.
Bernhard Brandis was the father of the noted microbiologist Henning Brandis.[4] He should not be confused with his uncle, the physician Bernhard Brandis (1826–1911), or with Ernst Brandis, of no relation, who was a judge on the Imperial Court of Justice from 1937.
