Is the constant arbitration court the last instance?

The issue will most likely determine the final assessment of the game between the Union and Bochum.
Under very close prerequisites, however, the decision could be attacked before the responsible Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main, for example if the legal system is violated. However, it cannot be assumed that it will get that far.
Who are the judges and when is a judgment to be expected?
The permanent arbitration court decides in the occupation with a chair and two assessors. Each referee must have the ability to become a judge and be impartial and independent. The former Federal Constitutional judge Prof. Dr. Udo Steiner. For the respective procedure, the parties involved determine one assessor of their choice.

How did they have DFB legal organs decided?
The case was first negotiated on January 9 before the DFB sports court in Frankfurt am Main. The VfL Bochum won the game at the green table. The game was rated 2-0 for the guests because Bochum was irregularly weakened according to the sports court.

However, the DFB Federal Court had the appeals of the two North German Bundesliga clubs at the start of the negotiation for inadmissibly explained.
