Judicial policy

Römermann criticizes the practice of appealing lawyers to the Federal Court of Justice . The journalistic prelude to the discussion was a pro and a contra article by Römermann and Rudolf Nirk in the magazine for legal policy 2007. In it Römermann called for the abolition of the BGH legal profession, while Nirk emphasized that the special quality of the selected lawyers led to this that the work of the court works better than it would if over a hundred thousand lawyers capable of learning could represent clients in civil matters before the Federal Court of Justice. In 2013, Römermann himself ran for admission, but was not appointed. He then initiated a series of legal proceedings, in which he was all unsuccessful. The Federal Court of Justice saw no evidence that inappropriate considerations had played a role in the vote on the number of BGH lawyers. The selection among the candidates was also not objectionable. In the choice made by the committee, there could be no question of a “closed shop”. The Federal Constitutional Court did not accept a constitutional complaint that was subsequently lodged for a decision. A related complaint to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) was rejected without further explanation.
