Kernrechtsfrage
How high should the party compensation be when a party is represented by an employed lawyer under § 47(2) KoV and the case only modestly burdens the employee-lawyer's time?
Extrahierter Entscheid
A compensation of 50% of the ordinary lawyer’s fee is appropriate in the circumstances.
Extrahierte Begründung
Although employed-lawyer representation normally justifies no fee under § 47(2) KoV, practice analogously allows up to 70% under § 45(4) KoV because the employee is usually substantially relieved from other tasks. Here, the claim concerned ordinary banking business and did not occupy the employee-lawyer to a significant extent, so only 50% was warranted.
