Facts of the case | Person affiliated to the nazi-regime adopts a new identity after WWII and joins the Socialist Party under a false identity. He is sentenced by German courts for signing many documents under a false identity and later for defamation. |
Analysis | Applicant complaints about the unfairness of the German system in general. This claim seems to be politically motivated and it is perhaps remarkable that the ECmHR does not declare it inadmissible on the ground of abuse of right. Rather, the Commission simply points out that most claims by the applicant have to be declared inadmissible ratione temporis and that others are inadmissible because not all domestic remedies have been exhausted. The rest of the claims are declared inadmissible because they are manifestly ill-founded. |
