Constitutional complaint on effective legal protection regarding supplementary pension scheme administration

The Federal Constitutional Court refused to accept the constitutional complaint for decision, leaving the lower court decisions in force and the complainant unsuccessful. The dispute concerned a claim to an effective right to legal protection (*effektiver Rechtsschutz*) regarding the system of supplementary pensions administered by a supplementary pension fund, where the applicant challenged the procedural or substantive adequacy of the specialist court's handling. The Court relied on a parallel decision from the same date, which had already determined that the substantive provisions governing the supplementary pension system did not violate constitutional standards, and therefore found no infringement of fundamental rights in the instant case, exercising its discretion to omit a detailed reasoning under § 93d (3) sentence 3 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act (BVerfGG).
