Employment litigation; admissibility and merits of revisionary appeal in labor law

The Federal Labor Court (BAG) dismissed the plaintiff's revision, thereby affirming the judgment of the Baden-Württemberg Land Labor Court and ordering the plaintiff to bear the costs of the revisionary instance. The dispute concerned a labor law claim where the plaintiff, having lost at the lower appellate level, challenged the Land Labor Court's decision on jurisdictional grounds. The decisive legal basis rested on the requirements for a valid revision petition, specifically addressing procedural thresholds and the substantive review standards applicable to labor disputes in the German Federal Court system, resulting in the final rejection of the plaintiff's arguments and the upholding of the lower court's ruling.
