The messenger - stumbling block of proper termination?
The contribution deals with the question of the applicability of § 174 BGB on the messenger, which gives the employee the termination of the employer. In practice, it turns out that the employer or organs do not regularly hand over the termination personally, but use third parties as representatives or messengers. The employee can reject the termination by a representative according to § 174 BGB if the original power of attorney is not submitted, which leads to the ineffectiveness of the termination. The legal situation in the messenger, on the other hand, is largely unclear. The dispute is illuminated and a practical solution is shown.
