Life

Schudoma was born in 1959 and grew up in West Berlin . After graduating from high school, from 1977 to 1980 she completed an apprenticeship in the upper non-technical administrative service at the Federal Insurance Agency for Salaried Employees (BfA) with a degree in administrative management (FH). Afterwards she worked for a short time in the external pension department of the BfA. In the summer semester of 1981 she began studying law at the Free University of Berlin . After she had passed the Second State Examination in July 1989, she was hired as a probationary judge at the Social Court in Berlin in November 1989.

As a result, Schudoma initially worked as an assessor at the social court until she was appointed judge at the social court with effect from November 30, 1992. In the same year she was also seconded to the Berlin Senate Department for Justice, where she worked as a consultant until 1993. After two motherhoods, after which she returned to her post at the Berlin Social Court , Schudoma moved to the Berlin Regional Social Court , which was still in existence at the time, in November 1997 , where she was appointed judge at the Regional Social Court. In March 2001 Sabine Schudoma returned and was appointed Vice-President of the Berlin Social Court. In 2004 she was appointed president of this court, which was and is the only social justice court in the city of Berlin after the merger of the regional social courts of Berlin and Brandenburg. In addition, the social court with 220 chambers (as of January 19, 2018) is the largest of its kind in Germany.

At the 10th session of the 17th electoral term of the Berlin House of Representatives, Sabine Schudoma was elected President of the Constitutional Court of the State of Berlin for a period of seven years on March 8, 2012. After the position of President of the Berlin-Brandenburg Regional Social Court, newly created in 2005, was advertised again in 2013, Schudoma was repeatedly the favorite in several application rounds, but could not be appointed due to formal errors or legal remedies from competitors. Most recently, one day before the end of the objection period against the selection process, the judge at the Federal Administrative Court Peter Wysk made an urgent motion . As a result, the position remained vacant for years, but the Potsdam Administrative Court rejected this urgent application by decision of May 2, 2017 and left the selection decision unopposed. In August 2017, Schudoma was finally appointed President of the Berlin-Brandenburg State Social Court. Her official inauguration took place on January 19, 2018.
