Training and Academia D. Grimm: There were no academics in my family; I was the first to attend university. Usually the legislature just follows the Court, which can lead to judge-made law when the Court's guidelines are too detailed. If a German ruling is found to have violated the Convention, German courts, including the BVerfG, will seek to adjust their jurisprudence to the Strasbourg court's views, within limits. Third, on joining the Court, I was very eager to understand better what role the political affiliation of the justices played in the Court's decision-making. Question: On your Court, there has always been a mix of law professors and senior judges from the other German courts.
