Questão jurídica principal
Whether a civil protection course accountant is an official under Art. 110 No. 4 StGB.

Yes. The accountant performed a legally assigned public-law accounting function for the state and therefore acted functionally as an official.
Fundamentação extraída
The court held that the criminal-law concept of an official is functional. The defendant was responsible for a public accounting task within the course staff, handled entrusted funds, and fulfilled a state-related public function expressly mentioned in the civil protection regulations.
