Office consents to ending partnership
In a recent development, a municipal employee in Gelsenkirchen has had their termination overturned by the Administrative Court of Gelsenkirchen. The case, which has been making headlines, involves allegations of misconduct and the suspension of the normal period for requesting consent for extraordinary termination.
The Integration Office was involved in this case, but the search results do not contain specific information about the rules and regulations regarding the suspension of the 14-day period for requesting consent for extraordinary termination in the case of comprehensive investigations, as decided by the Administrative Court of Gelsenkirchen.
However, according to general legal knowledge, in German administrative law, such suspension rules often involve precise legal criteria under which the countdown for requesting consent for extraordinary termination can be paused or interrupted—for example, when complex or comprehensive investigations are underway, preventing the timely completion of procedural prerequisites like consent requests. The Administrative Court of Gelsenkirchen would likely base its decision on balancing the need for procedural fairness against the interests of expediency in administrative termination processes.
To obtain the specific rules and official judicial reasoning as decided by the Administrative Court of Gelsenkirchen, one would need to consult the official published decisions or judgments related to this matter, relevant commentary or legal analyses in German administrative law focusing on extraordinary termination and procedural time suspensions, and official procedural regulations or guidelines in German administrative law that govern consent requests under extraordinary termination circumstances.
In this particular case, the municipal employee, who is considered equivalent to a disabled person, was terminated due to their actions. These actions included demanding another employee to annul a warning for her daughter and demanding not to be warned for parking violations herself. Reports suggest that other employees have also engaged in similar behaviour, leading to the invalidation of over 2000 warnings in recent years.
The Administrative Court decided that the integration office must approve the termination, as the normally applicable period for the request was suspended. The suspension of the request's normally applicable period was due to the comprehensive investigation of the annulments, which lasted several months. The Administrative Court of Gelsenkirchen made a decision in this case (AZ: 11 K 2880/20).

The court argued that there were no delays in the investigations, and the municipal employee's actions are considered a form of misconduct. A judgment regarding this case was made by the Administrative Court of Gelsenkirchen. This decision serves as a reminder of the importance of adhering to procedural rules and regulations in administrative law, even in complex cases.
The municipal employee, who had their termination overturned, might seek career opportunities in a different business sphere to avoid similar finance-related issues in the future. In light of this case, understanding the specific rules and regulations concerning the suspension of the 14-day period for requesting consent for extraordinary termination in German administrative law, particularly in cases involving comprehensive investigations, could prove crucial for any business associated with public administration.
