Sind für einen Schaden mehrere Personen ersatzpflichtig, so ist jede von ihnen insoweit mit den anderen solidarisch haftbar, als ihr der Schaden aufgrund ihres eigenen Verschuldens und der Umstände persönlich zurechenbar ist.
Der Kläger kann mehrere Beteiligte gemeinsam für den Gesamtschaden einklagen und verlangen, dass das Gericht im gleichen Verfahren die Ersatzpflicht jedes einzelnen Beklagten festsetzt.
Der Rückgriff unter mehreren Beteiligten wird vom Gericht in Würdigung aller Umstände bestimmt.
