Interim injunction extending the suspension of provisions in the Bavarian Assembly Act

The Federal Constitutional Court (First Senate) ordered the repetition of its interim injunction dated February 17, 2009, extending its effect for an additional six months or until the final decision on the constitutional complaint, thereby keeping specific provisions of the Bavarian Assembly Act temporarily suspended. The case concerns a constitutional complaint challenging the validity and application of parts of the state law governing public assemblies, where the complainant sought continued provisional relief to prevent the application of the challenged statutory norms during the pendency of the review. The decision rests on the procedural authority granted by § 32(6) sentence 2 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act (BVerfGG), which permits the extension of interim measures to safeguard rights pending a final ruling on the merits.
