Omnilex summary

The Federal Administrative Court admitted the plaintiff’s revision in a dispute over an allowance for performing a higher-ranking office. It held that the case has fundamental importance because it requires clarification of whether the 18-month waiting period under Section 46(1) BBesG depends on the concrete-functional office or the abstract-functional office.

Omnilex headnote

§ 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO; admission of revision for fundamental importance; where the applicability of an allowance under § 46 Abs. 1 BBesG turns on the 18-month waiting period, the decisive criterion—concrete-functional office or abstract-functional office—requires clarification by way of revision if the lower courts have not resolved the issue. The appeal is admissible when the case is suitable to clarify this unresolved legal question (consid. 1).
