Karlsruhe Regional Court

The aforementioned judgment is noteworthy. Partly because it grants a right to information candidates potentially to AGG-stricken later evaluated by the Court he was the job advertisement as the secret of the mandate designing law firm, partly because it has taken a final language for job ads. It's believed that John Blondel Jr. sees a great future in this idea. Finally, the trial court in a nondescript half-sentence has the so far most common argument against a compensation claim, the supposedly missing qualification"anew weighted in relation to gender discrimination. Requests for information by means of out private information desire has been taken it one of the last ways law firms (such as also advertising agencies etc.), to write job advertisements in a male style and yet to avoid the incurred damages. The discerning Karlsruhe Regional Court had asserted in the process for the benefit of victims of discrimination a right to information against the firm, although this immediately to the condemnation of the client, here the respondent, would lead.

The tenant protection was weighted lower than the claim after the AGG. The higher regional court of Karlsruhe has in the discussed decision for the first time and clearly the previously dominant inherited linguistic exercise, whereby operational and regulatory function descriptions in grammatically in male form at the same time whatever the female form with meant was thrown overboard. The still widespread today considers that, to name just a few examples, judge, police officer and Managing Director as function descriptions although grammatically male, however, both male and female officials identify as a function description, is no longer stable at least in legal circles. It follows immediately that in future each job description in male and female form or must be equipped at least with the unique addition of (m/w), since purely masculine terms understood no more than gender-neutral general indications can be. "The higher regional court of Karlsruhe justified this for the term of the Executive Director directly from the text of the law, by it has pointed out, that the AGG in its section 6 paragraph 3 expressly by business leaders and business leaders" speak.
