Elise Priks (also Liisa Priks; 9 January 1890 Laeva Parish (now Tartu Parish), Kreis Dorpat – 14 November 1943 Moscow) was an Estonian politician. She was a member of II Riigikogu. She was a member of the Riigikogu since 26 June 1924. She replaced Gustav Lange. On 22 November 1924, she was removed from her position and she was replaced by Kristjan Raudsepp.[1]
Priks was one of the suspects in one of the largest political trials in the history of Estonia, the so-called trial of the 149, which lasted the whole year of 1924. As a result of the process, the Workers' Front was declared an armed organization against the state, and members of the party were punished for belonging to the party and plotting a coup. The court sentenced Priks to 15 years of forced labor. She was released under the Amnesty Act of 1938.[2]
