Frankfurt-based Litigation partner Michael
Weigel and counsel Alexander Druckenbrodt
published an article in Deutscher AnwaltSpiegel, reviewing
the German Federal Supreme Court's January 26, 2016 judgement
of File No. XI ZR 91/14.
The article analyzes the decision from the perspectives of both
the plaintiffs and the defendants to explore how it dealt with
issues of prima facie evidence in the area of electronic funds
transfers. According to Weigel and Druckenbrodt, many of these
issues, often initially arising from poor lawmaking, have been
disputed in judicial literature and jurisprudence and have now been
solved by the court. Their article points out weaknesses of the
decision, but generally agrees with the court's judgment.
