Questão jurídica principal
Whether the Handelsgericht violated the right to be heard by failing to give reasons for the cost decision and to hear the plaintiff beforehand.
Decisão extraída
No constitutional right to a separate detailed reasoning or prior hearing existed because the fees were set within the applicable tariff ranges and no exceptional circumstances were shown.
Fundamentação extraída
Under the relevant case law, a cost decision generally needs no specific reasoning unless statutory maxima/minima are exceeded or extraordinary circumstances exist. The challenged amounts remained within the tariff and even in the lower third.
