Oliver Lepsius

In public interviews Oliver Lepsius, the university's professor of jurisprudence expressed his anger very powerfully over the affair.

Moving on, he studied Jurisprudence at Bonn, later switching to Munich which is where he passed the appropriate [[Staatsexamen|state professional exams (Staatsexamen)]] at both levels.

In 2002 he accepted a teaching chair in Public and Comparative Law at University of Bayreuth in succession to Peter Häberle.

[1] It was Häberle who had supervised Guttenberg for the latter's 2007 dissertation, but without at that stage spotting the issues that gave rise to the subsequent revocation of the resulting doctorate.

[6] Lepsius' academic work is focused in contemporary German administrative and constitutional law and its historical underpinnings.
