Omnilex summary

The Federal Labour Court partly set aside the judgment of the Hessian Regional Labour Court in a BAT pay-grade dispute. It held the claimant's appeal inadmissible insofar as she sought a declaration that the defendant state had to pay basic salary according to pay group IIa, highest age step, for the period from 1 August 2008 to 31 December 2009. The court also ordered the claimant to bear the costs of the appeal and revision. The parties had waived findings of fact and reasons because of a parallel lead case.

Omnilex headnote

§ 72 Abs. 5 ArbGG; § 555 Abs. 1 Satz 1, § 313a Abs. 1 Satz 2 ZPO: In proceedings following a parallel lead case, the court may dispense with findings of fact and reasons. If the revision succeeds only in part and the challenged appellate relief is inadmissible, the Federal Labour Court sets aside the appellate judgment to that extent and dismisses the appeal as inadmissible; the unsuccessful party bears the costs of the appeal and revision.
