BGH IV ZR 80/11•Non-admission complaint dismissed in church employment contract review
BGH IV ZR 80/11Bgh / Civil Chamber IVOct 10, 2012Dismissed
Extracted by Omnilex
The Federal Court of Justice dismissed the plaintiff's complaint against denial of leave to appeal from the OLG Hamm judgment concerning the review of church employment contract rules. It held that the matter raised no issue of fundamental significance and that neither development of the law nor the need for uniform case law justified review by the court of appeal. The relevant questions had already been clarified by Federal Labour Court case law, which the court expressly adopted. The complaint was therefore rejected at the complainant's expense.
§§ 543 Abs. 2, 544 Abs. 4 Satz 2 ZPO; non-admission complaint is rejected where the case raises neither fundamental legal questions nor a need for development of the law or safeguarding of uniform jurisprudence. Where the decisive questions are already settled by consistent supreme court case law, leave to appeal is denied. In assessing whether further review is required, the court may rely on the clarification achieved in other supreme court jurisprudence, here the Federal Labour Court, and adopt that line of authority (consid. 2).

Inhaltskontrolle kirchlicher Arbeitsvertragsregelungen
Die Beschwerde gegen die Nichtzulassung der Revision in dem Urteil des 20. Zivilsenats des Oberlandesgerichts Hamm vom 25. Februar 2011 wird auf Kosten des Klägers zurückgewiesen, weil weder die Rechtssache grundsätzliche Bedeutung hat noch die Fortbildung des Rechts oder die Sicherung einer einheitlichen Rechtsprechung eine Entscheidung des Revisionsgerichts erfordert (§§ 543 Abs. 2, 544 Abs. 4 Satz 2 ZPO).
Die von der Nichtzulassungsbeschwerde aufgeworfenen Rechtsfragen sind durch die Rechtsprechung des Bundesarbeitsgerichts, der sich der Senat anschließt, hinreichend geklärt (vgl. BAG, Urteile vom 6. November 1996 - 5 AZR 334/95, BAGE 84, 282 ff.; vom 19. August 2008 - 3 AZR 383/06, NZA 2009, 1275 ff.; vom 22. Juli 2010 - 6 AZR 847/07, BAGE 135, 163 ff.)

Whether leave to appeal should be granted against the OLG judgment.
Leave to appeal was not granted because the case had no fundamental importance and did not require clarification or uniformity review.
The legal questions raised by the complaint were already sufficiently clarified by Federal Labour Court case law, which the Senate followed.
