Questão jurídica principal
Whether non-registered company lawyers could validly act in court without falling under the attorney monopoly.
Decisão extraída
Non-registered agents may be authorized to conduct litigation under Art. 462(2) OR and do not automatically fall under the attorney monopoly of Art. 68 ZPO.
Fundamentação extraída
The lower court ignored that a company may confer litigation authority on handlungsbevollmächtigte even if they are not entered in the commercial register; it was therefore arbitrary to deny standing solely for lack of registration.
