Key legal question
Whether the Federal Register Office had authority to review the merger registration under Art. 99 FusG with full cognition.
Extracted holding
Yes. For non-enumerated restructurings and legally fundamental register entries, the register authority may examine legality fully.
Extracted reasoning
The requested entry concerned a legally fundamental and potentially third-party-affecting restructuring not expressly provided for by the FusG, so the authority and court were not limited to an obviousness test.
