History of the authorities: Even the business divisions of the Ministry of the Interior before 1918 provided for an area on legal issues, but above all designated the reporters and listed their businesses. Only a "draft of a business divider for the reporters of the Ministry of the Interior" drawn up at the end of 1918 specifically described the tasks of business part II. Since, however, due to the political events that followed, there were repeated changes in the division of competences at the Ministry of the Interior, a new business divider did not finally come into force until 14 October 1922. After that, business part II "Cases" comprised the following areas:1. General relations under Reich and state law2. Cases 3. Service Penalties for Community and Corporate Officials4. Foundation matters5. Church matters6. School supplies7. Nobility matters8. Substitution causes9. State and budget plans and accounting results1932/33 he received, with an extension of the designation in "Legal Matters, Citizenship", the subjects of surveying and marking previously dealt with by Business Part VII (it had already resorted to Business Part II until 1922), Reichs and Landeshörigkeit, emigration, fees as well as the areas arising from the World War and the Peace Treaty and to be dealt with by the Ministry of the Interior. The business distribution plan of 1 March 1936 was a continuation of the political development, the business part was renamed at the same time in "legal cases, citizenship, civil status". In August 1937, a special registry II L was set up for the area of national surveying, which also had to keep the files of the surveying personnel. Probably between 1936 and 1939, the business division handed over Wehrmacht affairs to Division III. The departmental registry was established at the latest with the office regulations of the Ministry of the Interior of 27 December 1924. For further documents on the history of the authorities, see the foreword to the finding aid register E 151/01. History of traditions: The present holdings essentially contain documents of the following deliveries:E 151 b II Delivery of the Ministry of the Interior from 1958 to the State Archives Ludwigsburg, 1969 to the Main State Archives StuttgartE 151 b III Files which were handed over by the Ministry of the Interior to the Regierungspräsidium Nordwürttemberg in 1952, delivered to the State Archives Ludwigsburg in 1964 and passed on to the Main State Archives Stuttgart in 1973.The former stock E 151 b I (referendum on 9.12.1951 in Nordwürttemberg) now has the designation EA 2/202 The files were indexed from the end of 1983 to spring 1988 with several interruptions under the direction of the undersigned by various editors, above all by the temporary employee Kurt Lohmüller, the temporary employee Waltraud Kopp and the archive inspector candidate Roland Deigendesch, who also produced the indices. A certain inconsistency could not be completely avoided because of the many editors. The files on Wehrmacht affairs were assigned to the police department (E 151/03) and are now recorded there. The files on surveying now form the holdings E151/12 and E 151/22. Foreign provenances were separated out and handed over to the State Archives Ludwigsburg and the City Archives Reutlingen. Due to the provisions of the State Archives Act, some personal archival records had to be provided with a period of protection retrospectively; in the case of extensive clusters, the blocking year was uniformly set to the year 2010.The title recordings made on index cards were entered on screen in 1991/92 by the archive employees Tanja Bürger and Gisela Filipitsch on the basis of the MIDOSA programme package of the State Archive Administration. 1183 tufts with some a-numbers = 45.7 m. m.Stuttgart in April 1992Braunn
