Extracted by Omnilex
On application by the Federal Cartel Office dated 1 August 2014, Bonn Local Court ordered seizure of documents found at the business premises of N H C GmbH. The order was made under § 46(1) OWiG in conjunction with § 98(2), first sentence, StPO. The decision concerns the seizure measure during an investigation; the supplied text does not identify the underlying suspected conduct or specify the documents seized.
Under § 46(1) OWiG, the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure apply correspondingly to administrative-offence proceedings unless the OWiG provides otherwise. Accordingly, § 98(2), first sentence, StPO provides the procedural basis for judicial ordering of a seizure in such proceedings. The decision applies these provisions to authorize seizure of documents found in the business premises identified in the application.
