Social security case: Legal fee for legal aid lawyer determined by Regulation § 6, not § 11.2.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court declined to issue a binding ruling on the appeal but provided a non-binding legal opinion regarding the calculation of legal fees. The court held that in social security cases involving management board liability, the fee for a legal aid lawyer must be set according to § 6 of the Lawyers' Fees Regulation rather than § 11.2. This distinction was necessary because the lower court's application of the wrong provision created a significant legal controversy requiring clarification, even though the final decision remains non-binding.
