Margarete Haimberger-Tanzer

Margarete Charlotte Haimberger-Tanzer (25 May 1916, Vienna - 1987)[1] was an Austrian lawyer, prosecutor and judge. Haimberger-Tanzer was the first woman to serve as a criminal judge at a court in the Republic of Austria and one of the first female judges in Austrian legal history.[2] In 1950, Margarete Haimberger was appointed as the first woman criminal judge and thereby initially transferred to the district court Bad Ischl. A year later, she returned to the Vienna Regional Court for Criminal Matters, where she was the first examining magistrate and in 1956 was the first woman chairing a Schöffenverhandlung.[3]
