Dismissal of labor law revision; allocation of litigation costs to the unsuccessful plaintiff

The Federal Labor Court (BAG) dismissed the plaintiff's revision, thereby upholding the Landesarbeitsgericht Baden-Württemberg's judgment from June 23, 2015, and confirming that the plaintiff did not prevail; the costs of the revision proceedings were borne by the plaintiff. The dispute concerned a labor law matter where the employee (plaintiff) challenged aspects of her employment relationship or termination against the employer, having previously lost at the appellate level after the lower court likely upheld the employer's position. The court's decision rested on the assessment that the facts and legal arguments raised in the revision did not warrant a departure from the prior instance's application of labor law principles, specifically regarding the validity of the employer's actions or the employee's claims as defined in the underlying procedural context.
