Johann Balthasar von Wernher (1675-1745) was Imperial Aulic Councillor and Professor of Law at the University of Wittenberg. His Observationes Forenses, compiled from the case law of the Wittenberg Superior Court, is one of the most important collections of judicial decisions of 18th-century Germany and a classic of the "usus modernus pandectarum."
