She got only 4.25 euros from the job center and was in dire need: After three years of struggling with the authorities, the Starnberger Hildegard Z. is now entitled to a pension and social assistance. Especially because her legal adviser Christian Kellner pulled out all the stops.

County - This story shows in an absurd and dramatic way how someone can fall through the social system. Christian Kellner, legal advisor at the Bavarian Red Cross, summarizes the case of his client Hildegard Z. from Starnberg as follows: "Two authorities have not managed to provide them with services for three years."

In the meantime, Kellner even had the physically and mentally battered woman instructed in psychiatry so that she would not harm herself, he fought for her - with applications, contradictions, lawsuits, an official complaint against a job center employee and even a complaint against job center manager Gerhart Schindler for failing to provide assistance. His last register was the step in public. Under the title "In free fall through the system", the Starnberg Mercury reported about Hildegard Z. Kellner for the first time at the end of November 2019: We have several such cases. It's just the most blatant. "

Now that it has been solved, Kellner was able to bring two good news to the Starnberg woman: The job center, from which, as reported, she had received only the curious sum of 4.25 euros per month for a long time, approved the usual standard rate retrospectively as of December 1, 2019. She has even been awarded the pension retrospectively since 2017. For waiters, the proof that Hildegard Z. has not been able to work since 2017 - but that was how she was classified for a long time. The supervisor has now received and accepted a "comparison offer" from the German Pension Insurance. A wrong term for waiters, especially since the insurance company fully conceded what he had asked for years. The BRK employee suspects a tactic behind it - according to the motto: "Refuse yourself until it is no longer possible". Actually, one had to sue for damages because of the great burden on Hildegard Z. "But I don't want her to do that. She is happy when that is finally over. "

List of services at government cost

This also applies to waiters themselves. He has drawn up a list of the services that were provided in this case at the state's expense. This includes 50 hours of Kellner's working hours - but they only concern the disputes with the job center. As reported, the classification as a so-called community of needs was the linchpin of the case. Hildegard Z. lives with a man in a 50-square-meter apartment. According to Kellner, the circumstances in confined spaces are prone to conflict. The two are not a couple that cares for each other - and therefore not a community of needs. According to the legal adviser, the job center has now lifted this classification.

In addition, Kellner lists the procedures in the pension procedure: the use of specialists, experts, clerks and finally the judge at the social court. The list was a need for him, you can tell. But he also makes it clear: "You can't fight through every instance in every case."
