Assessment of subject matter value for attorney fee calculation in constitutional complaint proceedings

The Federal Constitutional Court set the value of the subject matter of the attorney's activity at 50,000 EUR for fee calculation purposes, determining that the attorney acting for the complainant in the constitutional complaint proceedings was entitled to a fee based on this assessed value. The decision arose within the procedural framework of a constitutional complaint (Verfassungsbeschwerde), where the specific financial valuation of the subject matter was necessary to determine the professional fees owed to the representative under applicable court and attorney fee regulations. The decisive legal basis for this determination was § 61(1) Sentence 1 of the Federal Lawyers' Fees Act (RVG) in conjunction with § 113(2) Sentence 3 of the Court Costs Act (BRAGO), which govern the assessment of subject matter values in constitutional proceedings to calculate attorney remuneration.
