The
Federal Administrative Court (
Bundesverwaltungsgericht) is one of the five federal
supreme courts of
Germany. It is the court of the last resort for generally all cases of
administrative law, mainly disputes between citizens and the state. It hears appeals from the
Oberverwaltungsgerichte, or Superior Administrative Courts, which, in turn, are the courts of appeals for decisions of the
Verwaltungsgerichte (Administrative Courts).
