Sintesi Omnilex

The Federal Administrative Court granted leave to appeal on points of law. It held that the complaint was well-founded because the cassation proceedings could contribute to clarifying the meaning of the term “close connection” in § 3b(2) sentences 1 and 2 UVPG. The decision also noted the provisional determination of the value in dispute for the revision proceedings.

Massima Omnilex

§ 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO; leave to appeal on points of law may be granted where the case raises a question of fundamental significance. The interpretation of the term “close connection” in § 3b(2) sentences 1 and 2 UVPG is capable of constituting such a question if its clarification is likely to advance the uniform application of the law (consid. 1). A complaint is well-founded where the proposed revision may materially contribute to resolving that interpretive issue. The provisional assessment of the value in dispute follows the GKG provisions cited by the court (consid. 2).
