The refugee problem is too serious to respond with substance Wi spectacle - otherwise Seehofer notice to appeal against Merkel's refugee policy at the Federal Constitutional Court.
    Commentary by Heribert Prantl
    The announcement by Horst Seehofer suit in Karlsruhe is mere spectacle. You can not even say that it is a legal spectacle. Because jurisprudence is not to be recognized in this announcement.
    First, there is no need for legal protection. Horst Seehofer and his CSU are coalition partners of the government in Berlin; Seehofer and the CSU must first try to impose its policy there. These Seehofer would however secondly to know what policies he promoted at all concretely the construction of a fence around the Federal Republic of Germany perhaps? This construction can not sue in Karlsruhe certainly. The Federal Constitutional Court is in fact third for construction processes not responsible.

    The Bavarian government demanded by the federal government to limit the entry of refugees and threatened Merkel with a lawsuit. The statements in the video.
    It is, however, it will also probably Seehofer, inter alia, for so-called federal-jurisdiction litigation. These procedures give the federal government or the provinces the chance to defend their competencies in the federal structure. The procedure is governed by Article 93 paragraph 1 point 3 of the Basic Law and in paragraph 68 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act. But not even a Bavarian Einser lawyer is from the refugee dispute by Horst Seehofer can distill a lawsuit in Karlsruhe against Angela Merkel - not using all legal finesse, still using copious amounts of the standard local drinks.

    An action against the refugee-friendly speeches of the Chancellor?

    Bavaria's Prime Minister speaks in connection with refugees from "self-defense". Why such talk is unconstitutional.
    Whereby the statehood might Bavaria alone how Seehofer complains, be at risk?The new asylum law, to be adopted in the coming week in the Bundestag? They comply with the requirements of the CSU, a greater part of the proposals that have been found in these laws input comes from the CSU. It is the sharpest since the regulations amending the basic right to asylum in the year 1993rd
    Against the talk show appearance of the Chancellor at Anne Will is not possible a lawsuit in Karlsruhe. Against a refugee friendly talk the Chancellor did not. Will Seehofer complain that Angela Merkel speaks more sharply, as Seehofer Finance and competitor Markus Söder perhaps? A kind speeches-tightening-commitment action? "We can do it", the Chancellor said. Will Seehofer can prohibit that? For this purpose, he may have a new claim form invent a "deportation action".
    The refugee problem is too serious to respond with CSU slapstick.
