The lawyer for AfD politician Jens Maier has promised his client a revision against his early retirement.

"After the verdict is before the verdict," said defense attorney Jochen Lober on Thursday.

He will still talk to Maier, "but you can assume that we will take action." The Leipzig service court for judges had previously approved an application from the Saxon Ministry of Justice to retire Maier, who was classified as a right-wing extremist.

Leipzig – However, the judgment is not yet final.

Maier can appeal to the federal service court.

The house of Justice Minister Katja Meier had applied for retirement.

The Greens politician argued that anyone who is viewed as a right-wing extremist by state authorities can no longer be a credible representative of the judiciary.

Maier is classified as a right-wing extremist by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution in Saxony, but he is suing the Dresden Administrative Court.

He had lost his seat as a member of parliament in the 2021 federal election and then wanted to return to the judiciary.
