Constitutional complaint against administrative ruling: challenge to legality of administrative measure alleging violation of fundamental rights

The Austrian Constitutional Court (VfGH) dismissed the constitutional complaint, upholding the challenged administrative act as lawful and leaving the lower instance decision in force. The dispute concerned a challenge to the legality of an administrative decision, where the complainant alleged a violation of their fundamental rights or due process by the administrative authority. The Court’s decisive legal basis rested on its assessment that the impugned measure did not infringe upon the constitutional rights protected under the Austrian Federal Constitutional Law, thereby finding no grounds to annul the administrative ruling or remit the case.
