Omnilex summary

The Federal Constitutional Court dismissed an election review complaint. It held that the complaint had no prospect of success for the reasons already set out in the rapporteur's letter of 2015-10-07 and, pursuant to § 24 sentence 2 BVerfGG, dispensed with further reasoning.

Omnilex headnote

§ 24 S. 2 BVerfGG; election review complaint dismissed without further reasons; where a complaint manifestly offers no prospect of success, the Federal Constitutional Court may reject it summarily and refer to the reasons previously communicated by the rapporteur, without issuing a fuller statement of reasons. The order under § 48 BVerfGG confirms the Court's procedural competence in election review matters; a concise dismissal is permissible when the prerequisites of § 24 sentence 2 BVerfGG are met.
