The Federal Constitutional Court (1st Senate, 3rd Chamber) rejected the application to admit a representative and declined to hear the constitutional complaint, leaving the underlying decision in force. The case involved a request for the admission of a legal representative in a constitutional complaint proceeding, where the complainant alleged that the desired representative possessed sufficient legal qualifications to act on their behalf. Relying on § 22 (1) sentence 4 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act (BVerfGG), the court determined that admission must be objectively useful and subjectively necessary; it found that objective usefulness was not evident because the submitter failed to demonstrate or substantiate the representative’s sufficient legal qualification, leading to the rejection of the request without further reasoning under § 93d (1) sentence 3 BVerfGG.

Nichtannahme einer Verfassungsbeschwerde ohne Begründung - Ablehnung eines Antrags auf Beistandszulassung

[TENOR]

Der Antrag auf Zulassung des Herrn (…) als Beistand wird abgelehnt.

Die Verfassungsbeschwerde wird nicht zur Entscheidung angenommen.

[GRUENDE]

Dem konkludenten Antrag auf Zulassung eines Beistands ist nicht zu entsprechen.

Eine Zulassung nach § 22 Abs. 1 Satz 4 BVerfGG, die in das pflichtgemäße Ermessen des Bundesverfassungsgerichts gestellt ist, kommt nur in Betracht, wenn sie objektiv sachdienlich und subjektiv notwendig ist (vgl. BVerfGE 8, 92 ; 68, 360 ; BVerfG, Beschluss der 2. Kammer des Ersten Senats vom 19. April 2021 - 1 BvR 679/21 -, Rn. 7). Vorliegend ist bereits die objektive Sachdienlichkeit nicht erkennbar. Dass die als Beistand gewünschte Person über eine hinreichende juristische Qualifikation verfügt, ist weder vorgetragen, noch ergibt sich dies aus der von ihr verfassten Beschwerdeschrift.

Von einer Begründung der Nichtannahme der Verfassungsbeschwerde zur Entscheidung wird nach § 93d Abs. 1 Satz 3 BVerfGG abgesehen.

Diese Entscheidung ist unanfechtbar.
