Dismissal of revision concerning labor law dispute; costs of appeal imposed on plaintiff

The Federal Labor Court (BAG) dismissed the plaintiff's appeal, rejecting the revision against the Lower Saxony Regional Labor Court’s judgment of September 21, 2015, and ordered the plaintiff to bear the costs of the appellate proceedings. The dispute involved a labor law claim initiated by the plaintiff, challenging an earlier ruling from the lower instance. By upholding the prior decision, the BAG confirmed the legal position established by the Regional Labor Court, leaving the previous judgment in force. The decisive legal basis lies in the procedural finality of the lower court's determination regarding the specific labor law issues contested by the employee, although the provided text does not detail the specific substantive statutory norms (e.g., unfair dismissal or collective agreement violations) relied upon to reach this conclusion.
