Corona demo in Munich may not take place as planned - but the court decision has a surprise in store

Update from September 12, 2020, 9.38 a.m.:

The

Court decided this

early on Saturday morning - and thus partially confirmed the first instance judgment and the city's requirements.

However, a previously forbidden elevator with up to 500 participants was allowed from

Otherwise, the organizers' complaint was rejected.

can only take place with 1000 participants.

The

reports, however, that the Bavarian Administrative Court (VGH) lifted the limitation of the meeting there to 1000 visitors.

According to a VGH spokeswoman, there is no fixed upper limit for the number of participants, not even 5000. From the court's point of view, the decisive factor is “that the hygiene regulations (can) be complied with.” The initiative

, which organized the demo, had previously lodged an appeal against decisions of the Munich Administrative Court.

According to the company's own statements, there are no legal remedies against the decisions of the Bavarian Administrative Court.

under the motto "Peace, Freedom and Health".

The city banned the demo and only allowed it under strict conditions on the

- but only with 1000 participants for infection protection reasons.

A planned demonstration through the city was also prohibited.

The organizers had sued against this requirement.

The

Court then confirmed the city's decisions (M 13 E 20.4261 and M 13 E 20.4258).

One argument for this: the foreseeable violations of the legally mandatory distance requirement created an immediate danger to public safety, the judges said.
