The Federal Administrative Court granted leave to appeal for the complainant, finding that the case involves fundamental legal significance, thereby reversing the lower court's refusal and initiating a revision proceeding. The dispute concerns a gambling-related administrative prohibition order (Untersagungsverfügung), with the applicant challenging the legal validity of the measure. The decisive legal issues identified for the upcoming revision concern the specific requirements of definiteness under § 37 Abs. 1 VwVfG for administrative orders that merely reference the statutory definition of gambling under § 3 GlüStV, as well as the procedural requirements for a graduated enforcement approach, specifically whether the authority must possess and disclose a comprehensive concept or plan for targeting specific providers or provider groups.

Revisionszulassung; Bestimmtheit einer glücksspielrechtlichen Untersagungsverfügung

[GRUENDE]

Die Beschwerde hat Erfolg. Der Rechtssache kommt die geltend gemachte grundsätzliche Bedeutung gemäß § 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO zu.

Das Revisionsverfahren bietet voraussichtlich Gelegenheit, die Voraussetzungen der Bestimmtheit (§ 37 Abs. 1 VwVfG) einer glücksspielrechtlichen Untersagungsverfügung, die gesetzeswiederholend auf die Begriffsdefinition des Glücksspiels des § 3 GlüStV verweist, näher zu präzisieren.

Darüber hinaus führt die Beschwerdebegründung voraussichtlich auf die Rechtsfrage, welche Anforderungen an ein abgestuftes Vorgehen der Behörde gegen einzelne Anbieter oder Anbietergruppen beim Erlass glücksspielrechtlicher Untersagungsverfügungen zu stellen sind insbesondere, ob ein Plan oder Gesamtkonzept für das behördliche Vorgehen vorliegen und gegebenenfalls, wie dieses beschaffen sein muss.

Die vorläufige Streitwertfestsetzung für das Revisionsverfahren beruht auf § 47 Abs. 1, § 52 Abs. 1, § 63 Abs. 1 Satz 1 GKG.
