Employment termination dispute: adequacy of review for dismissal claims under German labor law

The German Federal Labor Court (BAG) dismissed the plaintiff’s appeal, upholding the lower court’s judgment and ordering the plaintiff to bear the costs of the revision proceedings. The dispute concerned a civil labor law matter where the plaintiff challenged the outcome of the Hessisches Landesarbeitsgericht’s decision from November 19, 2012. By rejecting the appeal, the court effectively affirmed the prior instance's ruling on the specific labor law issues presented, leaving the lower court’s operative judgment in force. While the specific statutory provisions are not detailed in the provided excerpt, the decision resolves the contested civil claim based on the evaluation of labor law principles and procedural standards applicable to the employee’s challenge.
