Validity of employment dismissal and scope of review by the Federal Labour Court

The Federal Labour Court dismissed the plaintiff's revision, upholding the lower court's judgment and ordering the plaintiff to bear the costs of the appeal. The case involved a dispute over the termination of an employment relationship, where the plaintiff challenged the validity of the dismissal on procedural or substantive grounds against the defendant employer. The court's decision relied on the interpretation and application of German labor law provisions regarding the requirements for a valid termination, specifically evaluating whether the employer met the necessary legal standards for dismissal protection, thereby rejecting the plaintiff's claim and leaving the prior instance decision in force.
