Reimbursement of defense counsel’s travel expenses for mandatory participation in a criminal revision hearing under § 46 Abs. 2 RVG and § 350 Abs. 2 Satz 2 StPO
Legislator-Zusammenfassung
KI-generiertThe Federal Court of Justice (2nd Criminal Senate) granted the defense counsel's application, formally determining that the lawyer's travel to Karlsruhe for the main revision hearing on July 2, 2025, was necessary. The dispute concerned the entitlement to reimbursement for travel expenses under the professional fee regulations, where the defense argued that the mandatory appearance at the oral revision hearing justified the claim. The court ordered the payment of the travel costs, reasoning that the defense counsel's participation in the revision hearing was legally required under § 350 Abs. 2 Satz 2 StPO, and therefore the expenses fell within the scope of § 46 Abs. 2 RVG.
