history

The Schleswig-Holstein Higher Administrative Court was only set up in 1991. Before that, the Lüneburg Higher Administrative Court was responsible for both Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein.

Superordinate and subordinate courts

The Federal Administrative Court is superordinate to the Schleswig-Holstein Higher Administrative Court. The Schleswig-Holstein Administrative Court is the subordinate administrative court.

Known procedures

The OVG last came into the public eye in the context of the state elections in 2005 , when the question arose again whether the exemption of the South Schleswig Voters' Association (SSW) from the five percent clause and the expansion of the electoral area to Holstein with the Basic Law and the state constitution are compatible. As early as 2002, the court submitted the question of the constitutionality of the exemption of the SSW from the five percent clause to the Federal Constitutional Court as part of a judicial review procedure . However, this decided that the submission is inadmissible. As a result, the Schleswig-Holstein Higher Administrative Court again submitted an identical submission to the Federal Constitutional Court in 2005, whereupon the latter again rejected the submission as inadmissible.
