Substitution of appointed legal aid counsel: modification of Prozesskostenhilfe order without increased state costs

The Federal Constitutional Court modified the previous legal aid order of May 30, 2011, by substituting the initially appointed counsel with a different attorney, explicitly stipulating that this change shall not result in increased costs for the state treasury. The dispute arose within the context of a constitutional complaint where the procedural management of legal aid (Prozesskostenhilfe) required administrative adjustment regarding the designated legal representative. The operative decision rests on the procedural authority of the court chamber to amend the specific provisions of a legal aid order, ensuring the continuity of representation without imposing additional financial burden on the public purse.
