Overview

  • Judge Tobias Oelsner reopened the urkundenprozess at the Berlin Regional Court on July 3, 2025, scheduling new hearings for document reviews and potential witness testimonies.
  • Fredi Bobic is claiming €594,000 in unpaid salary and over €2.7 million in contractual severance following his January 2023 dismissal by Hertha BSC.
  • The court had proposed a €3.2 million settlement at the request of both parties but Hertha delayed and ultimately rejected the offer, though the option remains open until final judgment or appeal.
  • Multiple recusal motions filed by Hertha have repeatedly delayed the expedited document-only procedure and pushed back any decision dates.
  • A separate appeal over Bobic’s successful challenge to his extraordinary dismissal continues while he serves as sporting director at Poland’s Legia Warsaw.
