Constitutional complaint applicant: Grant of legal aid and appointment of counsel for the filing of a complaint

The Federal Constitutional Court granted the applicant's petition, ordering the award of legal aid without installment payments and the appointment of a legal representative to safeguard his rights. The dispute arose from the applicant's request for procedural assistance, which is a prerequisite for lodging a constitutional complaint, rather than a substantive merits review of a prior lower court judgment. The decision was issued as a procedural order (Prozesskostenhilfebeschluss) by the First Senate, Second Chamber, relying on the statutory framework for legal aid and the appointment of counsel necessary to exercise the right to file a constitutional complaint.
