Art. 33b VwVG

Die Behörde kann das Verfahren im Einverständnis mit den Parteien sistieren, damit sich diese über den Inhalt der Verfügung einigen können. Die Einigung soll einschliessen, dass die Parteien auf Rechtsmittel verzichten und wie sie die Kosten verteilen.

Zur Förderung der Einigung kann die Behörde eine neutrale und fachkundige natürliche Person als Mediator einsetzen.

Der Mediator ist nur an das Gesetz und den Auftrag der Behörde gebunden. Er kann Beweise abnehmen; für Augenscheine, Gutachten von Sachverständigen und Zeugeneinvernahmen braucht er eine vorgängige Ermächtigung der Behörde.

Die Behörde macht die Einigung zum Inhalt ihrer Verfügung, es sei denn, die Einigung leide an einem Mangel im Sinne von Artikel 49.

Soweit die Einigung zustande kommt, erhebt die Behörde keine Verfahrenskosten. Misslingt die Einigung, so kann die Behörde davon absehen, die Auslagen für die Mediation den Parteien aufzuerlegen, sofern die Interessenlage dies rechtfertigt.

Eine Partei kann jederzeit verlangen, dass die Sistierung des Verfahrens aufgehoben wird.
