The Federal Disciplinary Court (BDH) was from 1953 to 1967 a higher federal court of administrative jurisdiction under Article 96 of the Basic Law with its seat in Berlin . It was responsible for appeals and complaints in judicial disciplinary proceedings by federal officials .

The Federal Disciplinary Court decided, among other things, on appeals against judgments of the Federal Disciplinary Chambers . It consisted of the President , the Senate Presidents, other federal judges and honorary judges (assessors of civil servants). In the main negotiations, each senate decided with three professional judges and two official assessors.

The official costume of the judges consisted of an official robe and a beret in accordance with the order of the Federal President on the official costume at the federal disciplinary courts of March 31, 1953 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 122 ). The color of the official costume was crimson. The trimmings on the official robe and beret were made of velvet. The President of the Disciplinary Court wore three gold cords on his beret, the Senate presidents two gold cords, and the federal judges two crimson silk cords.

history

The law on the establishment of federal criminal courts of November 12, 1951 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 883 ) regulated that the Federal Minister of the Interior set up “federal criminal chambers” by ordinance and determined their seat and district . In the Imperial Service Criminal Regulation of 26 January 1937 (Reichsgesetzblatt I, p. 71) provided Reichsdienststrafhof was in Bundesdienststrafhof renamed. With the law of November 28, 1952 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 749 ), the terms in federal disciplinary chambers and federal disciplinary court were replaced. In addition, the Reich Service Penal Code was given the name Federal Disciplinary Code .

The Federal Minister of the Interior issued the ordinance on the establishment of federal disciplinary chambers on January 5, 1953 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 7 ). Accordingly, 13 chambers were set up, each with an office.

The Federal Disciplinary Court was opened together with the Federal Administrative Court on June 8, 1953 in the western part of Berlin by the then Federal Minister of the Interior , Robert Lehr ( CDU ). Both were initially housed in one building, but independent of each other. The Federal Disciplinary Court later moved to the building at Reichspietschufer 72-76 in Berlin, the Bendlerblock and now the second official seat of the Federal Ministry of Defense .

When the court was dissolved in 1967, its jurisdiction was transferred to the Federal Administrative Court .
