The Federal Administrative Court (BVerwG) granted permission to file an appeal (Revision), thereby suspending the lower court's judgment pending a final review by the same court. The dispute concerns a civil servant's claim for time-in-lieu (Zeitausgleich) for overtime work performed beyond ordered hours, specifically addressing whether such a claim arises under the principle of good faith (Treu und Glauben) when the official voluntarily undertakes the additional duty rather than being complicit in an unlawful order by the employer. The court identified the case as having fundamental legal significance under § 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO, specifically regarding the scope of good faith obligations in public service employment relationships. The decision also sets the preliminary amount in dispute for the appellate proceedings pursuant to §§ 47, 52, and 63 GKG.

Die Revision des Beklagten ist zuzulassen, weil die Rechtssache grundsätzliche Bedeutung im Sinne von § 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO hat. Das Revisionsverfahren erscheint zur Klärung der sinngemäß aufgeworfenen Frage geeignet, ob sich ein Anspruch auf Zeitausgleich aus dem Grundsatz von Treu und Glauben auch dann ergeben kann, wenn nicht der Dienstherr den Beamten einseitig in rechtswidrigem Umfang zum Dienst herangezogen hat, sondern wenn sich der Beamte selbst in der Pflicht gesehen hat, über die angeordnete Arbeitszeit hinaus Dienst zu leisten.

Die Streitwertfestsetzung für das Beschwerdeverfahren folgt aus § 47 Abs. 1 Satz 1, Abs. 3 und § 52 Abs. 2 GKG. Die vorläufige Festsetzung des Streitwerts für das Revisionsverfahren beruht auf § 63 Abs. 1 i.V.m. § 47 Abs. 1 Satz 1 und § 52 Abs. 2 GKG.
