Sintesi Omnilex

The First Senate held that the referral from the Federal Court of Justice concerning the constitutionality of § 1600(1) no. 5 BGB had become moot. Because the Court had already decided the same constitutional question in its judgment of 2013-12-17 (1 BvL 6/10), the issue submitted by the referring court was considered answered and no longer required a separate ruling.

Massima Omnilex

Preliminary ruling referral; mootness of a constitutional submission after an earlier decision of the Federal Constitutional Court. Where the same statutory provision and constitutional question have already been decided by the Court, a parallel referral concerning that provision becomes obsolete; the referred question is then no longer capable of independent adjudication (consid. 1).

Parallelentscheidung: Gegenstandslosigkeit einer Richtervorlage

Tenor

Die Vorlage ist durch die Entscheidung des Bundesverfassungsgerichts vom 17. Dezember 2013 - 1 BvL 6/10 - gegenstandslos geworden.

Gründe

1 Das Bundesverfassungsgericht hat mit Beschluss vom 17. Dezember 2013 im Verfahren 1 BvL 6/10 festgestellt, dass § 1600 Abs. 1 Nr. 5 BGB und Art. 229 § 16 EGBGB, beide in der Fassung des Gesetzes zur Ergänzung des Rechts zur Anfechtung der Vaterschaft vom 13. März 2008 (BGBI I S. 313), gegen Art. 16 Abs. 1, gegen Art. 6 Abs. 2 Satz 1, gegen Art. 2 Abs. 1 in Verbindung mit Art. 6 Abs. 2 Satz 1 und gegen Art. 6 Abs. 1 GG verstoßen und nichtig sind. Aus dem Beschluss des vorlegenden Gerichts ergibt sich, dass § 1600 Abs. 1 Nr. 5 BGB auch im vorliegenden Verfahren zur Prüfung gestellt ist. Die Vorlage ist damit gegenstandslos geworden, da die vorgelegte Frage durch die genannte Entscheidung beantwortet ist.

Questione giuridica chiave

Whether the constitutional referral was still admissible after the BVerfG's earlier decision of 2013-12-17 in 1 BvL 6/10.

Decisione estratta

The referral had become moot because the referred question had already been decided in the earlier case.

Motivazione estratta

The earlier BVerfG ruling declared § 1600(1) no. 5 BGB and Art. 229 § 16 EGBGB unconstitutional and void. Since the referring court’s submission showed that the same provision was also at issue here, the question was already answered.
