Emergency injunction for reopening public facilities and bookshops denied due to insufficient substantiation of the anticipated constitutional complaint

The Federal Constitutional Court of Germany's First Senate, Second Chamber, rejected the applicant's application for interim injunctive relief, ruling that the request was unsubstantiated and unchallengeable. The dispute concerned the legality of pandemic-related closures of public saunas, baths, fitness studios, and bookshops, where the applicant sought an emergency order to compel their reopening pending a future constitutional complaint. The court denied the application on procedural grounds, determining that the applicant failed to sufficiently demonstrate that a subsequent constitutional complaint would not be manifestly inadmissible or unfounded.
