Omnilex summary

The Federal Constitutional Court rejected an application for an interim injunction. It held that the applicant had not sufficiently substantiated that a possibly still to be filed main application would be admissible and not manifestly unfounded. The order is final and not subject to appeal.

Omnilex headnote

§ 32 Abs. 1 BVerfGG; interim injunction before the Federal Constitutional Court: An application is to be rejected if the applicant fails to make a sufficiently substantiated showing, in accordance with §§ 23(1) sentence 2 and 92 BVerfGG, that the intended main application is neither inadmissible nor manifestly unfounded. The court does not enter into a full merits review at the interim stage; rather, the applicant must at least plausibly present the admissibility and arguable merits of the intended principal proceedings. If this threshold showing is lacking, provisional relief is denied.

Whether an interim injunction should be granted under Section 32(1) BVerfGG.

Extracted holding

The application was denied because the applicant did not substantiate that any main application to be filed would be neither inadmissible nor manifestly unfounded.

Extracted reasoning

Under the summary review applicable to interim relief, the applicant must at least plausibly show the admissibility and non-obvious merits of the intended constitutional complaint or main application; this threshold was not met.
