Germany's Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe opened a trial seeking to ban the far-right National Democratic Party (NPD), Germany's highest court announced on Monday.
The court launched a hearing from March 1 to 3 to verify whether the right-wing party should be banned because of their potential anti-constitutional activities.
German media Focus Online reported that the Federal Council of Germany had petitioned for a ban in December 2013, arguing the extreme-right NPD was unconstitutional and would eliminate free democratic basic order as a whole.
However, the lower house of the German parliament Bundestag and the German government did not join the request, said the report.
The NPD party is often described as a neo-Nazi organization and has about 7,000 members.
