Mootness of constitutional reference to Berlin rent control law following declaration of federal legislative incompatibility
Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Federal Constitutional Court dismissed the proceedings as moot because the subject matter was rendered obsolete by a subsequent, parallel decision. The case involved a reference under Article 100(1) of the German Basic Law, questioning the constitutionality of Berlin’s Rent Regulation Law regarding its alignment with federal legislative competences. The reference became moot after the Court’s Second Chamber, in a separate ruling, declared the same law incompatible with Article 74(1) No. 1 in conjunction with Article 72(1) of the Basic Law, rendering it null and void; this current decision is final and unappealable.
