In early December, the district court Kaufbeuren sentenced the actress Antje Mönning for a misdemeanor to a fine of 300 euros. She had performed a kind of dance in a parking lot in the Allgäu and raised her skirt in front of three men under which she wore no underwear.
Two of the observers were plainclothes police officers who reported monning. The third eyewitness was a truck driver controlled by the plainclothes police. He had alerted the officials to the incident, which had then filmed Mönning's dance.
Now Mönnings defender Alexander Stevens announced that he had launched a so-called jump revision to the Higher Regional Court of Munich. In the process he had argued that in the case of Mönning the elements of the clause 183a of the Criminal Code, that is to say public arousal, would not apply. "Even Nacktflitzer will not be prosecuted," he said in court.
The case had made headlines nationwide - also because the actress had once presented a nun in the ARD series "For heaven's sake". She had not denied her performance in the parking lot, but called it an art event.
Against Mönning it had initially given a penalty order for excitement of public nuisance. This charge was held by the magistrate to be inaccurate, the required sexual act of some relevance does not exist. He condemned Mönning but because of "harassment of the general public". Attorney Stevens had already announced at the trial to want to go to the Federal Constitutional Court.
