Legislator summary

AI generated

The court dismissed an appeal seeking pre-trial disclosure of work time tracking tables under $\S 228$ of the Civil Procedure Code, reasoning that while Article 46 of the Labour Act refers to the Data Protection Act, this reference is intended only to ensure supervisory authorities comply with data protection standards and does not create a private law right for an employee to obtain pre-trial disclosure of such records, which are primarily documentation for enforcement bodies; furthermore, the court found that the appellant failed to demonstrate a specific, instrumental need under data protection law or other legal grounds, such as potential personality right violations, to justify the required disclosure of factual time records.
