104 C 256/11•Online partnership contract: renewal clause and termination
104 C 256/11Tribunale di primo grado22 set 2011Diritto civileParzialmente accolto
Estratto da Omnilex
In this first-instance civil case, the claimant sought payment under an internet-based partnership-mediation contract. The Bonn Local Court held that the contract’s six-month renewal clause did not violate § 309 no. 9 BGB. It also held that the internet-based service was not a service of a higher kind under § 627(1) BGB and therefore did not support termination on that basis. The defendant was ordered to pay EUR 299.40, with interest at five percentage points above the applicable base rate from service of the claim on 7 July 2011. The remainder of the claim was dismissed, and the defendant was ordered to bear the costs.
BGB §§ 611, 627(1), 309 no. 9; partnership-mediation agreement concluded via the internet. A six-month renewal clause in such an agreement does not violate § 309 no. 9 BGB. A contract for internet-based partnership mediation does not involve services of a higher kind within the meaning of § 627(1) BGB. The possibility of terminating such a contract under that provision is therefore not established merely by the personal nature of the subject matter; the service must possess the particular characteristics of a higher-kind service contemplated by the statute.
