Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: Court rejects lawsuit against the obligation to leave the country

Greifswald (dpa/mv) - The owner of a second home in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has failed with a lawsuit against a temporary entry ban or an associated obligation to leave the country in the corona lockdown before the state's higher administrative court. The court in Greifswald dismissed the lawsuit after an oral hearing lasting several hours on Tuesday evening, as the applicant and opponent unanimously announced. The Senate of the Higher Administrative Court did not allow a revision.

The norm control suit was directed against the state government. The aim was to declare the regulations on the entry ban and the exit requirement in two Corona regulations from 2020 and 2021 to be invalid. The applicant, who has his primary residence in Leipzig and a secondary residence in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, was affected by the obligation to leave the country with his family in 2020, even though he had traveled to the state before the relevant ordinance came into force.
