German term or phrase: Beschwerdegegenstand
Included in the instructions about rights to appeal in a court case: "Sie können... die in dem Beschluß enthaltene Entscheidung über die Verpflichtung, Kosten oder notwendige Auslagen zu tragen, wenn der Wert der Wert des Beschwerdegegenstandes 200DM nicht übersteigt." Can anyone tell me the correct legal expression?
