Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the asylum appeal had been unduly delayed before the ARK and the Federal Administrative Court.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The court held that the proceedings had lasted too long and no objective justification was shown for the inactivity.
Motivazione estratta
The case had been pending for years, with no meaningful procedural steps after May 2005. The general need to prioritize older asylum cases did not excuse ignoring the applicant's repeated requests or her particular circumstances.
