Decisions of the Hessian courts, which are regarded by the documentation centres as worthy of publication, are made available for inspection in the state case law database. This publication serves to inform interested citizens and the professional public. Decisions that you cannot find there can be requested from the respective court. In principle, it is necessary to specify the court that made the civil court decision and the file number.

The anonymised copy of a court decision can only be issued by the court that issued the judgment or order. For this purpose, an informal application must be made to the court. After receipt of the application, it is examined there whether the requested court decision is in principle suitable for being handed over to a third party not involved in the proceedings. If this is the case, the court decision regarding sensitive data of the parties to the proceedings will be anonymised and sent to the applicant. A separate cost accounting is then issued for the costs incurred.

There is no legal processing period. As a rule, processing takes place within a few days of receipt of the application.

The surrender of an anonymous court decision can be requested at any time, without observing deadlines .

If the surrender of the court decision is refused, a review of the legality pursuant to § 23 EGGVG may be requested.
