»The Federal Convention Between Appointment and Election. Constitutional Classification and Constitutional Questions of the Electoral Procedure«: According to the Federal Constitutional Court in its two judgements from 2014, the election of the Federal President is an appointment. This cannot be followed: The Federal Convention is rather a »mixtum compositum« body, which combines elements similar to a parliament as well as to an appointment body. This has profound consequences, among others, affecting the session chair, the right of its members to make a statement as well as to file motions, and for the execution of future Federal Conventions.
