Synthèse Legislator

Généré par l'IA

The Federal Administrative Court (BVerwG) granted the defendant's application for leave to file an appeal, finding that the lower court's judgment deviated from established precedent and ordering a re-examination by the highest administrative court. The dispute concerned whether several months of grossly negligent absence from duty by a civil servant regularly justified imposing the maximum disciplinary sanction of discharge from service. The lower court had held that such grossly negligent absence was sufficient to warrant the highest measure as the starting point for sentencing. The BVerwG ruled that this interpretation diverged from its settled case law, which limits the presumption that the maximum disciplinary sanction is appropriate to cases involving *intentional* unauthorized absence from service lasting several months.

Disziplinare Höchstmaßnahme auch bei grob fahrlässigem Fernbleiben vom Dienst; Zulassung der Revision wegen Divergenz

[GRUENDE]

Die Revision des Beklagten ist zuzulassen, weil das Urteil des Oberverwaltungsgerichts von der Rechtsprechung des Bundesverwaltungsgerichts abweicht und auf dieser Abweichung beruht (§ 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 2 VwGO, § 67 Satz 1 LDG NRW).

Das Oberverwaltungsgericht hält bereits das mehrmonatige grob fahrlässige Fernbleiben eines Beamten vom Dienst für regelmäßig hinreichend, die disziplinare Höchstmaßnahme zum Ausgangspunkt der Maßnahmebemessung zu machen (Berufungsurteil, Bl. 28 - 33). Demgegenüber geht die Rechtsprechung des Senats bisher allein für den Fall des vorsätzlichen unerlaubten Fernbleibens vom Dienst über Monate hinweg regelmäßig von der Angemessenheit der disziplinaren Höchstmaßnahme - d.h. der Entfernung aus dem Beamtenverhältnis - aus (vgl. zuletzt BVerwG, Urteil vom 21. April 2016 - 2 C 13.15 - BVerwGE 155, 35 Rn. 11).
