What is this document registering?
I found this document as part of a 2-page entry in the 1847 civil birth registrations. I am not actually sure exactly what it's purpose is. I am only including the first page here although the entire entry can be viewed at the Hürth City Archive.
I have a couple, Johann Joseph Becker and Anna Catharina Balkhausen in my database of Becker families from the area. However, they were both born around 1780 and would be too old to have a child in 1847. I know there is a discussion of the surnames of Balkhausen and Esser and I know from the research I've done so far, that Anna Catharina Balkhausen's parents were Johann Balkhausen and Elisabeth Esser.
Since this document is more than a basic reporting of a birth, I would like to get an idea what is being discussed here. After that, I can work on figuring out a translation.
The link to the archives is: https://www.huerth.de/digitales-archiv.php
Then to digital Lesesaal>archive>Stadtarchiv Hürth>2. Amts- und Protokollbücher>2.26 Zivilstandsregister>Geburtsregister>2.26.051 Geburtsregister - 1847
Thank you for looking at this and providing me an idea what is being registered in this entry!

This record reports the verdict (Urtheil) of the regional court in Köln of 24 February 1847 regarding the surname of Catharina given in the birth record of her daughter Elisabeth, born 3 December 1823. This surname is given incorrectly as "Esser", but shall be "Balkhausen". So this is a very wordy correction of the error made in the birth record of 1823.
