Kirchheimer’s loyalty to Schmitt strained his ties with the Institute.

Evidence

Relations with Kirchheimer, which were not particularly close anyway, had probably become even more distant after Adorno met Kirchheimer shortly after his arrival in Frankfurt in 1949, and learned that Kirchheimer had visited his former teacher, Carl Schmitta professor of law who had been prepared to do anything to get access to the ruling power, which had then left him out in the cold. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 495
