Bundestag Rejects Appeal Against Order to Refrain
Berlin, Germany – July 8, 2025 – The German Bundestag announced today that an appeal lodged against an order to refrain has been formally rejected. The decision, published on the Bundestag’s official website, signifies the finality of the original disciplinary measure.
The specific details surrounding the initial order to refrain and the grounds for the appeal have not been publicly disclosed. However, the rejection of the appeal indicates that the Bundestag’s presidium, responsible for maintaining order and decorum within the parliamentary chamber, found sufficient justification for its initial action.
Orders to refrain are typically issued by the President of the Bundestag in situations where a Member of Parliament (MdB) is deemed to be violating the rules of parliamentary conduct. This could include persistent disruption of proceedings, use of unparliamentary language, or refusal to comply with directives from the chair. Such orders serve as a formal admonishment and can be a precursor to further disciplinary actions if the behavior persists.
The appeal process, as outlined in the Bundestag’s rules of procedure, allows members to contest such rulings. The presidium reviews the appeal, considering the arguments presented by the involved MdB and the circumstances leading to the original order. The rejection of this appeal suggests that the presidium’s review upheld the initial judgment, confirming that the member’s conduct warranted the order to refrain.
This administrative decision underscores the Bundestag’s commitment to upholding the established rules and maintaining a productive and respectful parliamentary environment for all members. While the individual case remains confidential, the process itself highlights the mechanisms in place to ensure accountability and order within Germany’s federal legislature.
