Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the employee's right to be heard was violated before the abolition of the position and dismissal.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The employee was not given a chance to comment on the office's submission before the dismissal decision, despite the serious consequences.
Extrahierte Begründung
Given the drastic impact on the employee's professional and economic existence, full prior hearing was required; the violation was serious, though the court also examined the merits instead of remanding.
