Einstweiliger

Einstweiliger is a German legal term that translates to "interim" or "provisional." It is used in various contexts within German law, most notably in administrative law and criminal law. In administrative law, an einstweilige Anordnung (interim order) is a temporary measure issued by a court to protect the rights of an individual or entity while a final decision is being made. This can be used, for example, to prevent the demolition of a building that is the subject of a legal dispute. In criminal law, an einstweilige Verfügung (interim measure) can be issued to prevent the destruction of evidence or to protect witnesses. The purpose of these interim measures is to provide immediate relief while the legal process continues. The court's decision on the interim measure is typically made quickly, often within a few days, to ensure that the protected rights are not prejudiced. The final decision on the matter is made after a thorough examination of the case by the court. Einstweiliger is a crucial tool in German law, ensuring that justice is served promptly and fairly.
