Overview
- Announcing the move in a Monday Instagram post, Müller said she will not pursue the planned revision and will focus on her family.
- With the appeal withdrawn, the January 12, 2026 judgment by the Leipzig regional court becomes final.
- The court convicted her of using symbols of unconstitutional organizations and drug possession, imposing 70 day-fines of €50 (€3,500), far below an earlier €80,000 first-instance penalty after her income was reassessed.
- Courts in both instances found she repeatedly made the Hitler salute during a September 2022 concert in Leipzig.
- Müller maintains she had no extremist intent, and her lawyer says the arm movement was a crowd-rousing gesture tied to the chant “Zicke Zacke, hoi, hoi, hoi.”
