German Social Court Day

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
German Social Court Day (2011)

The German Social Court Association (DSGT) is an association based in Potsdam, which was founded in January 2006 and which, from the perspective of practitioners, critically deals with questions of social law. It organizes a conference every two years , which is also called the German Social Court Day .

society

The German Social Court Day sees itself as an “interdisciplinary professional association that ... gets involved in the legal and political debate in all areas of social law.” Membership is not only open to lawyers (judges, lawyers, lawyers in associations and the authorities), but also to all social law practitioners (Authorized representatives, authorities and associations, doctors as medical experts and scientists).

There are eleven commissions on the individual areas of social law, procedural law and ethical issues in which the ongoing specialist work takes place.

The president is Monika Paulat, who was president of the Landessozialgericht Berlin-Brandenburg until she retired on December 31, 2013 .

Events

Every two years, the association organizes the German Social Court Day in Potsdam , at which current social law issues of fundamental importance are discussed.

In addition, "practitioner workshops" are held on selected current topics.

The documentation of the Bundestag meetings, event reports and statements are published by Richard Boorberg Verlag Stuttgart.

Positions

The German Social Court Conference is heard as an expert in the legislative process and in the proceedings before the Federal Constitutional Court .

One focus of the work so far has been statements on the Hartz IV social reform , particularly with regard to the level of the standard rates for children and the high number of lawsuits pending before the social courts. In the constitutional complaint on the question of the extent to which the inclusion of illegitimate children in the community of needs when receiving unemployment benefit II and social benefit is compatible with applicable law, the German Social Court Assembly took the view that this regulation was in the version of the law of July 20 2006 unconstitutional because it was not compatible with the basic right to a decent subsistence level. On a further existential question of the right to basic security for jobseekers, the German Social Court Conference raised profound concerns in a statement in the proceedings before the Federal Constitutional Court against the constitutionality of the cuts in benefits exceeding 30% of the standard rate and was found in the one on November 5 Decision announced in 2019 confirmed in its positioning.

The association also opposes the amalgamation of administrative and social jurisdiction , which the Federal Council had already operated unsuccessfully on several occasions and which was also provided for in the coalition agreement of the black-yellow coalition of 2009 . This is primarily associated with disadvantages for citizens seeking legal protection.
