Revision dismissed in labor law parallel-case appeal

Extracted by Omnilex

Omnilex summary

The Federal Labor Court dismissed the plaintiff's revision against the judgment of the Hessian State Labor Court. The decision was issued in a labor-law dispute involving parallel proceedings in which the parties waived findings of fact and reasons. The court upheld the appellate judgment and ordered the plaintiff to bear the costs of the revision.

Omnilex headnote

§ 72 Abs. 5 ArbGG, § 555 Abs. 1 Satz 1, § 313a Abs. 1 Satz 2 ZPO; waiver of findings of fact and reasons in parallel proceedings does not prevent dismissal of an unfounded revision. Where the parties validly dispense with Tatbestand and Entscheidungsgründe because of parallel cases, the Federal Labor Court may decide the revision succinctly by reference to the connected proceedings; if the appeal lacks merit, it is to be rejected and the unsuccessful party bears the costs (consid. not indicated).
