Suspension of guardianship appointment order to safeguard right to be heard

The Federal Constitutional Court issued an interim order suspending the execution of a lower court's guardianship appointment order pending a full hearing on the merits, thereby granting relief to the petitioner. The dispute arose from a guardianship (Betreuung) proceeding where the petitioner alleged a potential violation of the right to be heard (rechtliches Gehör) in the appointment decision by the local court of first instance. The decisive legal basis was the procedural guarantee of a hearing, leading the court to suspend the contested measure to prevent a final decision that might infringe on the petitioner's fundamental right to participate in the proceedings affecting their legal status.
