The sports court determines the penalty depending on the severity of the foul or the unsportsmanlike nature, and after acceptance by both clubs involved, a written judgment is drawn up. Only about 20% of all judgments are heard orally. A judgment by the DFB Sports Court can only be overturned by the DFB Federal Court.
