There is relatively little case law on the BGG. Most judgments relate to the obligation to provide accessibility.

The Federal Administrative Court has ruled that the necessary degree of accessibility in the planning of railway stations is sufficiently specified by § 2 (3) of the Railway Construction and Operating Regulations. According to this, railway stations with an average of less than 1,000 passengers per day must only be equipped with barrier-free access in acute cases of need (file number 9 C 1.05).

According to a decision by the Berlin-Brandenburg State Social Court, authorities must deliver documents barrier-free, in order for visually impaired people to read them independently (file number L 18 AS 2413/12 B ER). By contrast, the Higher Administrative Court of Rhineland-Palatinate considers a notice to be announced and thus valid if it has been delivered to visually impaired persons in the usual written form, especially if it can be assumed that another person can read the notice to the visually impaired person (file number 7 A 10286/12).
