Frauke Brosiusová-Gersdorfová

Frauke Brosiusová-Gersdorfová is a legal scholar whose nomination as a judge to Germany's Constitutional Court has recently come under scrutiny due to allegations of plagiarism. Her candidacy faced opposition from the Christian Democratic Union/Christian Social Union (CDU/CSU) coalition, which raised concerns about her liberal views on issues such as abortion and mandatory vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite initial support from political leaders, her nomination was postponed amid the controversy surrounding the plagiarism claims, which have sparked a significant political crisis within the ruling coalition.
