Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the civil appeal was admissible despite the value in dispute being below the statutory threshold because a question of fundamental importance was alleged.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The alleged issue concerned only application of settled case law to the specific contract wording and facts, so it was not a question of fundamental importance.
Extrahierte Begründung
A fundamental legal question must be construed restrictively and requires a need for uniform clarification of federal law. Here the lower court decided based on the employer's actual intent regarding the bonus clause, not on an unresolved abstract legal problem.
