Omnilex summary

In three joined constitutional proceedings, the applicants withdrew the initiating applications by written submissions of 1 and 11 April 2011. The Federal Constitutional Court held that the cases were to be discontinued because no public interest justified continuation. The decision does not address the substantive compatibility of § 11 FinAusglG 2005 with Art. 107(2) sentence 3 GG.

Omnilex headnote

§ 68 BVerfGG, § 76 BVerfGG; withdrawal of the initiating application in constitutional proceedings: following withdrawal, the proceedings are to be discontinued unless a public interest in continuation exists. The Court will not proceed to the merits where such interest is absent (cf. consid. 1).
