Omnilex headnote

Art. 313a(1) ZPO; where the parties have waived a statement of facts and reasons, the court may dispose of the case accordingly. In revision proceedings before the Federal Labour Court, a successful challenge leads to setting aside the appellate judgment and, where the merits so require, amendment of the first-instance judgment and dismissal of the action. Costs follow the outcome of the dispute and are imposed on the unsuccessful party (consid. tenor).
