The Federal Administrative Court allowed the appeal against the lower court's refusal to admit the revision, finding that the case possesses fundamental legal significance; consequently, the plaintiff prevailed on the procedural motion, and the case was referred for full merits review on appeal. The dispute concerned a telecommunications regulatory matter, specifically whether an authorization for tariff rates under § 37(2) of the Telecommunications Act requires a specific contractual claim as a prerequisite for its effect in shaping private legal relationships. The decisive legal basis for the decision was § 132(2) No. 1 of the Code of Administrative Court Procedure (VwGO), which governs the admission of revisions based on fundamental legal significance, alongside §§ 47, 52, and 63 of the Court Costs Act (GKG) for the determination of the value in dispute.
