Omnilex summary

The Zurich High Court ordered that appeal proceedings LA170031-O be joined with the parallel appeal LA170030-O and continued under that docket. As a consequence, LA170031-O was declared erledigt and struck out. The order concerned only case management in an employment-law appeal against the Uster Labor Court judgment of 3 April 2017.

Omnilex headnote

Joinder of parallel appeal proceedings; where two appeals concern related employment-law disputes, the appellate court may order joinder and continuation under one file number. The separate file is then closed as erledigt/struck out, with no substantive ruling on the merits of the underlying labour claim.
