Omnilex summary

The Federal Administrative Court dealt with a complaint against the refusal to admit revision in a norm control proceeding. It held the complaint admissible and well-founded. Revision was admitted under Section 132(2)(1) VwGO because the case presented a question of fundamental importance, namely the scope of the jurisdiction clause in Section 47(1) VwGO and the subject-matter jurisdiction of the Higher Administrative Court.

Omnilex headnote

§ 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO; revision admissibility for fundamental importance in norm control proceedings under § 47 Abs. 1 VwGO. A complaint against denial of leave to appeal is well founded where the case raises a question of fundamental importance and the clarification of the scope of the jurisdiction clause in § 47 Abs. 1 VwGO is still open. The requirement of fundamental importance is met where the appealed decision may offer occasion to clarify an issue of general significance for the interpretation and application of the norm-control jurisdiction; consid. 1.
