Refusal to disclose domestic intelligence records

The Federal Constitutional Court refused to accept the constitutional complaint for decision, rendering the decision final and unchallengeable without providing a substantive reasoning, as permitted under § 93d(1) sentence 3 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act. The dispute concerned a constitutional complaint challenging the refusal to disclose information from domestic intelligence (Verfassungsschutz) files. The decisive legal basis for the procedural outcome was the court's discretionary power to decline jurisdiction over the case without a written explanation.
