Michael Wendler in court: does the deportation from the United States face to him?

Michael Wendler, the 52-year-old pop star, faces dramatic consequences after he was convicted by a German court for bankruptcy. As reported [oe24.at] (https://www.oe24.at/leute/musik/vorstrafe-werd-wendler-jetzler-jetzt-beit- abstelled- abstelled, the district court of Duisburg decided in the appeal process that Wendler is guilty and is now officially preliminary. This has potentially serious effects on his stay in the USA.

Originally, Wendler was supposed to pay a fine of 100,000 euros, but now the amount has been reduced to 15,000 euros. Nevertheless, this penalty order could have serious consequences for him, because if the judgment becomes final, he threatens not only the payment of this fine, but also the loss of his GreenCard. Wendler emigrated to the USA with an artist visa in 2016 and stated that it has had a GreenCard since 2020. Under the strict Estados administration, his status could lead to deportation as a previous criminal foreigner.

The uncertainty of his future

Despite the difficult situation, Wendler remains optimistic and has announced a concert in Bochum for May 24th. He uses social media to ask his fans to acquire tickets. While he continues to meet in his homeland, the US government under Donald Trump, who is particularly hard with criminal foreigners, seems to be a potential threat to his residence permit, such as Intouch.de supplemented.

The legal implications of his case are not only personally important for Wendler, but also raise broad questions about insolvency proceedings, especially in an international context. In Germany, foreign companies that are insolvent must be treated according to international bankruptcy law, whereby responsibility is often determined by the company's seat or the main interests of the debtor. This is treated precisely in the regulations, explains [Brennecke Rechtsanwälte] (https://www.brennecke--rechtsanwaelte.de/internationales-insolvenrecht-Insolvenz-ausla-in-in-in-in- Germany_1952). The universality principle applies here, whereby the main procedure records the entire assets of society.

Wendler's situation could also show how international legal provisions work in practice and what challenges foreign citizens have to expect in German bankruptcy law. Deportation could not only bring high costs for Wendler and emotional stress, but also raise legal questions that must be treated in a territorial or particular procedure.

The coming weeks will be crucial for Michael Wendler's future. While he is now on trial, it remains to be seen whether his legal struggle will also influence the stage of his career.
