Curriculum Vitae
Simon Dollenz attended secondary school in St. Paul and studied in Vienna and Prague, where he obtained a doctorate in law. After military service in the First World War and practising as a notary, he joined the tax authorities in 1920.
In 1925, he was appointed head of the district tax authority in Perg, Upper Austria - a national stronghold. Simon Dollenz was persecuted and provoked there. In 1926, he was put on trial, as a result of which he was transferred to Vienna in August 1927.
Immediately after the occupation of Austria by the Third Reich, the now head of department was dismissed from his post on March 13, 1938 and forced to retire. He was arrested on September 29, 1939 for distributing a mocking poem and charged under the Treachery Act in August 1940. As the malice law had not yet been introduced in the "Ostmark" at the time the mocking poem was distributed, he was acquitted.
As a result, his family was evicted from their home in favor of South Tyrolean repatriates.
