The Federal Administrative Court granted the defendant's complaint and ordered the admission of an appeal on points of law, effectively allowing the case to proceed to the Revision bench. The dispute concerned a property restitution claim under the German Restitution and Compensation Act (VermG), specifically challenging the lower court's treatment of eligibility for participation interests in companies that were situated outside the accession territory at the time of the expropriation or seizure. The court found the appeal admissible due to the matter's fundamental legal significance, as it requires clarification on whether § 1 Abs. 6 and § 3 Abs. 1 Satz 4 Halbs. 2 VermG permit the determination of entitlement to business participations for entities with a foreign seat during the relevant period.
