Constitutional review of judicial labor law decision: absence of constitutional illegality

The Austrian Constitutional Court (VfGH) dismissed the constitutional complaint, upholding the challenged judicial decision. The dispute concerned a labor or social security matter where the complainant challenged a lower court’s judgment, arguing a violation of fundamental rights or due process. The case did not involve a specific legislative enactment but rather the review of a judicial decision for constitutional compliance. The decisive legal basis was the Austrian Federal Constitutional Law (B-VG), specifically provisions granting the VfGH jurisdiction to review decisions of public courts for constitutional illegality. The Court found no violation of the constitution and thus denied relief, leaving the original judicial ruling in force.
