Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the municipal employment relationship and training-cost repayment clause were governed by public law or private law
Extrahierter Entscheid
The relationship could be qualified as public law; the repayment clause was sufficiently linked to the public employment relationship.
Extrahierte Begründung
The actual content of the relationship, not its label, is decisive. Here the municipality's hoheitlich fixed employment conditions dominated, and the training-cost agreement was an ancillary arrangement closely connected to the public service relationship.
