About this page
In Germany, the separation of powers is a central principle of the democratic constitutional state . State power is distributed among three independent branches of government: the legislative branch (legislation), the executive branch (executive branch, i.e., the administration and authorities), and the judicial branch (judicial branch). Within the framework of this separation of powers, legal proceedings take place before independent courts. This means that courts make their own decisions and are not bound by instructions from authorities or the government.
This judicial independence is constitutionally guaranteed and ensures that disputes between citizens, as well as between citizens and the state, are decided neutrally, impartially, and solely on the basis of applicable law . This separation is particularly important in administrative law—for example, in proceedings against decisions made by immigration authorities or embassies. Those affected can rely on the fact that their concerns will not be assessed by the same authority that issued the administrative act, but by an independent court. Judicial proceedings are thus a central instrument for protecting individual rights and monitoring state action.
