After the Hannover administrative court has granted urgent requests against the curfew, the region wants to file a complaint. It is currently forbidden to go out between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.
According to the court, this is now on hold for all four applicants. Everyone else must continue to abide by the curfew. According to the court, the Hannover region has not sufficiently explained why the condition is unavoidable. The region did not adequately explain how the number of infections would worsen if there were no curfew. This violation of fundamental rights is not covered by the Infection Protection Law, which imposes very high demands on the justification of such measures. On Friday evening, the Hannover region announced that it would appeal the decision to the Higher Administrative Court in Lüneburg.
