Constitutional complaint admissibility and procedural cost assistance for the Federal Constitutional Court proceedings

The Federal Constitutional Court granted legal aid and appointed counsel to the applicant for her constitutional complaint, prevailing in this procedural order. The dispute concerned the applicant's request for procedural cost assistance (Prozesskostenhilfe) to cover legal fees and expenses for her pending constitutional complaint against the Higher Administrative Court (Verwaltungsgerichtshof) in Bavaria, which she filed challenging the denial of her application for administrative law legal aid at that level. The decision was based on Article 25 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act (BVerfGG) and Section 119 of the Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO), which governs the grant of legal aid and the mandatory appointment of an attorney in proceedings before the Federal Constitutional Court.
