Report on the Bundesverfassungsgericht's (Federal Constitutional Court) Jurisprudence in 2005/2006
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 March 2019
Extract
The Bundesverfassungsgericht (Federal Constitutional Court) is a constitutional body charged with the task of ensuring that all state institutions, i.e. the legislator as well as the judiciary and executive branches, obey the constitution of the Federal Republic of Germany. Its review standard is the Grundgesetz (Basic Law). Since its foundation in 1951, the Court has helped to secure respect and effectiveness for the free democratic constitutional order. The decisions have far-reaching repercussions, which becomes particularly clear when the Court declares a law unconstitutional. Given the large number of cases handed down every year – at present nearly 5,000 constitutional complaints come before the Federal Constitutional Court annually – it is nearly impossible to give a representative summary of the comprehensive case law. Therefore, the report will concentrate on a selection of four decisions that have drawn the most attention over the course of the years 2005 and 2006.

10 Art. 6 of the Basic Law reads: “(1) Marriage and family are under the special protection of the state. (2) Care and upbringing of children are the natural right of the parents and primarily their duty. The state supervises the exercise of the same. (3) Against the will of the persons entitled to their upbringing, children may only be separated from the family, pursuant to a statute, where those so entitled failed or where, for other reasons, the children are endangered to become seriously neglected. (4) Every mother is entitled to protection by and care of the community. (5) Children out of wedlock, by legislation, have to be provided with the same conditions for their physical and mental development and for their place in society as are legitimate children.”Google Scholar

94 § 31 para 1 at that time read: “The police is allowed to demand the transfer of individual-related data of certain groups of persons out of data-files from public and non-public institutions in case it is necessary for the defense from a present threat for the existence or the safety of the state or the federal state or for the physical condition, life or freedom of a person.” Para 2 stated, which data could be demanded, para 3 ruled that data had to be deleted after the purpose was served or after it became futile. In para 4, the need for a Local Court's ruling was determined, while para 5 ruled the conditions of the information of the persons concerned.Google Scholar
