Resumo Omnilex

The plaintiff brought a civil claim against the defendant concerning an abstract acknowledgment of debt. The Bonn Local Court held that an agreement to transfer a democratically legitimized city council mandate to a third party in exchange for financial consideration is contrary to public policy and void. Because the legal basis of the abstract acknowledgment was void, the defendant could invoke the defense of unjust enrichment. The court dismissed the claim and ordered the plaintiff to bear the costs. The judgment was declared provisionally enforceable, subject to the stated security arrangements.

Sumário Omnilex

BGB §§ 138(1), 780, 781, 821; paid transfer of a democratically legitimized city council mandate and abstract acknowledgment of debt. An agreement to transfer a municipal council mandate to a third party in return for financial consideration is contrary to public policy and void. Where an abstract acknowledgment of debt rests on a void legal basis, the debtor may oppose enforcement by raising the defense of unjust enrichment under § 821 BGB. The abstract character of the acknowledgment does not preclude that defense.
