Valuation of the subject matter for attorney fee calculation in constitutional complaint proceedings

In this decision regarding the subject matter value in constitutional complaint proceedings, the Second Senate of the Federal Constitutional Court fixed the value of the matter for the purpose of attorney fees at 200,000 EUR. The dispute concerned the determination of the procedural value (*Gegenstandswert*) in a constitutional complaint case, a procedural determination necessary for calculating the costs of legal representation. The court applied the statutory provisions governing the valuation of subject matter in constitutional judicial proceedings to establish the financial significance of the constitutional rights challenged, thereby setting the basis for cost allocation and fee calculation in the underlying constitutional review.
