Reconstruction of the henneberg hall will be expensive

Municipal employee thomas beck, who is responsible for the municipality’s buildings, said that the municipality, as the operator, must comply with the legal requirements. The hall had been put into operation in 1984/ 1985. The installed air conditioning system was not approved by the building authorities. At the same time, beck pointed out that the oil heating system is already 29 years old. "It makes sense to renew these at the same time as the vehicle is inspected", beck is convinced. Wolfgang groeger of the engineering firm groeger (bad kissingen) had examined the hall. He explained to the council members what needed to be done to the building and what they had to watch out for. The fire protection flaps between the ventilation center and the assembly hall were missing; in addition, the ventilation center is not separated from the multipurpose hall in terms of fire protection. In addition to fire dampers, a central alarm system must be installed to shut down the ventilation systems in the event of a fire. "The reconstruction will be associated with coarse costs", said the expert.

With a new fire protection concept, new fire protection doors have to be installed at the entrance to the refugee camp and at the stage entrance. Groeger also recommended renewing the boiler system, which is 29 years old. In his opinion, this decrease is necessary simply because a new system could save a lot of energy and thus money. Thomas beck then expressed his wish at the council meeting to receive a signal from the council on how to proceed. The board decided that the administration should work out a reorganization concept together with experts. Local councillor andreas sandwall (CSU) also requested that the possible installation of a combined heat and power plant be taken into account.

Eu data protection rules still cause uncertainty

Eu data protection rules still cause uncertainty

Almost 100 days after coming into force, the new EU data protection rules are still causing uncertainty. "Interpretation and interpretation require a certain amount of time," digital expert lina ehrig from the verbraucherzentrale bundesverband told the german press agency.

Businesses are naturally trying to interpret the rules more broadly than consumer associations. "In practice we will see how this develops." The basic data protection regulation (gdp) has been in effect for 100 days this weekend.

Ubs gambler adoboli sentenced to seven years in prison

Previously, a jury had found the man guilty of two counts of fraud. The jury at southwark crown court was unable to prove that the man, now 32, had falsified the books. It was one of the most serious fraud cases in the history of european banking. Adoboli is thus in a row with the french fraudster jerôme kerviel, who robbed the french bank societe generale of five billion euros, and the british gambler nick leeson, who brought barings bank to its knees with his risky business.

Adoboli had defrauded UBS of a total of 2.3 billion US dollars with risky stock exchange transactions. He himself had denied the fraud until the end. He had merely tried to work for the good of the bank, he stated. Colleagues and superiors had known about the transactions in which he had circumvented the bank’s risk management system.

Half a million euros “rebooked”

Actually, a tax consultant from the district of bad kissingen was supposed to look after 1.5 million euros that an old lady from wurzburg left to her heirs. In fact, however, as executor of the will, he tapped into the accounts of his former client and "rebooked" almost half a million euros for himself: all online, from the office. There is no evidence that the old woman allegedly told her tax advisor during her lifetime that she would help him if he ever got into financial difficulties.
In june 2016, the tax consultant from the district of bad kissingen was sentenced to three years and ten months in prison by the district court of schweinfurt for 43 counts of embezzlement. After that, a criminal division of the federal court of justice dealt with the executor, overturned the verdict and sent the case back to schweinfurt for a new trial: among other things, the question of reparation for the damage done had not been sufficiently assessed and of the 43 acts of embezzlement, 16 are to be checked again in detail for booking and other data.
The reason for this is almost academic: it could be that the executor got money from the will pot twice in one day, and then it was not two crimes, but only one continued case of disloyalty.
The 71-year-old confessed everything in the first round of the process and yesterday again. Account statements were read out, direct debits, booking data and receipts, with and without tans.

Economically taken over

From the accounts of his "victim the defendant has "relatively small" amount, but deducted in short intervals, between 4000 and 10000 euros, with seemingly explanatory notes such as "deduction, according to agreement, invoice or partial payment". The presiding judge wanted to know if there was an explanation for this rhythm. Angelika drescher asked why he had not suddenly asked for larger amounts of money. The defendant could only explain it by saying that he had overstretched himself financially by setting up a new law firm in his old days, that clients who were already certain did not come after all, that he had been confronted with all possible liabilities every month anew and had wanted to make up the deficit temporarily in a hurry.

Step into normality

Step into normality

"… And then came corona!" This was probably the most spoken (half) sentence at the general meeting of the DJK/FC seblach on saturday evening in the sportheim. The shutdown as a result of the corona pandemic also brought severe cuts to club life and all sporting activities. Now the association dared to take the first step back to normality and held the new elections, which had originally been scheduled for march.

"This is a very special meeting, said font stephan leicht at his funeral service. Never before had the club held its regular event in the hall. Only here could the requirements imposed by the district administration office with hygiene concept, distance rules and mouth-nose mask when walking around in the room be observed. Furthermore, there was no service at the place, no glaziers (auber weibbierglaser) and lists, in which everyone had to sign in at the individual tables with his contact data. Despite the restrictions, about 50 people came to the event. "We are a great club", commented lightly.

The bidder does not get the contract

The bidder does not get the contract

The drama becomes a farce: almost ten years after the landslide in eltmann, which has kept the authorities, courts and a whole army of lawyers busy ever since, the vineyard at the wallburg came under the hammer on friday before the district court in bamberg. Although an interested party offered 25,000 euros, twice the market value, he was not awarded the contract. At the last minute the foreclosure proceedings were stopped.
Why? This is the question you have to ask the operator of the foreclosure sale, a credit institution based in habberge county. It owns a land charge on the 22,000-square-meter site in eltmann, 160,000 euros, according to michael battert, the legal officer who conducted the foreclosure auction.

Eu opinion strengthens rights of gas customers

Eu opinion strengthens rights of gas customers

An expert at the european court of justice (eugh) recommended on thursday that disputed price change clauses in gas contracts for special customers be rejected (case C-92/11). The clauses, according to which suppliers can unilaterally change the prices under certain circumstances, are intransparent and disadvantage the customers.

The eugh usually, but not always, follows the opinion of its general counsel. The ruling will be handed down in a few months. An RWE spokesman reacted calmly. The disputed clauses have not been used for years. "This dispute has nothing to do with the reality of our customers today."

Hofmann was unable to say anything about costs, as no decision had yet been made on how to proceed there.
