The Federal Administrative Court granted the plaintiff’s complaint and admitted the revision. It held that the case may clarify whether Section 17(7) sentence 1 of the Lower Saxony Beihilfeverordnung of 7 November 2011 is compatible with higher-ranking law. The order does not decide the substantive validity question; it only finds that the issue is sufficiently important to justify revision under Section 132(2) No. 1 VwGO.
§ 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO; admission of revision for fundamental significance. A complaint is well-founded where the challenged judgment raises a legal question whose clarification in revision may be expected to contribute to the development or uniform application of law. Fundamental significance exists where the compatibility of a subordinate legal provision with higher-ranking law is unresolved and requires clarification in the appellate proceedings; the admission order need not decide the substantive question itself.
