Labor litigation: finality of appellate costs allocation and dismissal of revisionary appeal

The Federal Labor Court (BAG) dismissed the plaintiff's revision, leaving the prior appellate judgment in force and ordering the plaintiff to bear the costs of the revisionary proceedings. The dispute concerned a labor law matter where the plaintiff challenged the decision of the Düsseldorf Regional Labor Court dated December 7, 2016. The decision relied on the standard review of the revisionary appeal, finding no grounds to overturn the lower court's ruling on the substantive labor law issues presented.
