Information on the rights of legal appeal

You may lodge an objection (see 1) or directly file a lawsuit (see 2) against any decision or ruling of the Examination Board (e.g. on submitted requests or applications) within one month of being notified.

1. If you lodge an objection

You must either submit your objection in writing to the Otto-Friedrich-Universit?t Bamberg, 96045 Bamberg, or visit Kapuzinerstr. 16, 96047 Bamberg for transcription of your objection. If an objective decision is not made within a reasonable period of time without sufficient reason, you may file a suit in writing with the Bavarian Administrative Court of Bayreuth, 95422 Bayreuth, or visit the court registry clerk at Friedrichstr. 16, 95444 Bayreuth for transcription of your statement. You may not file a lawsuit before the expiry of three months from the filing date of your appeal, unless a shorter period is required due to special circumstances of the case.
In filing the lawsuit, you must indicate the plaintiff, the defendant (Otto-Friedrich-Universit?t Bamberg) and the subject of the claim. Additionally, you must also make a specific claim and indicate the facts and evidence to be submitted in support thereof. You should enclose the original or a copy of this notification with the statement of claim. You should include copies of all documents for the other parties to the lawsuit

Notes on objection proceedings:

  •     The objection must be substantiated, otherwise it must be decided according to documents on record.
  •     If an objection has been received without substantiation, the objecting party will not be asked separately to provide substantiation.

You must file your lawsuit within one month of notification of the decision with the Bavarian Administrative Court in Bayreuth, 95422 Bayreuth, Germany, street address: Friedrichstr. 16, 95444 Bayreuth, in writing or in person for transcription by the court registry clerk.
