1. If a small enterprise shows an operating loss in the most recently prepared annual financial statement and if assets are not available as security to a sufficient extent, security is to be ordered at the request of the opposing party in accordance with Rule 158 of the Rules of Procedure. 2. When assessing the security, reasons of equity that become relevant for the subsequent determination of costs must be taken into account. This is because the assessment of the security must be based on the costs to be determined in accordance with Art. 69 UPCA; according to Art. 69 UPCA, reasons of equity may preclude the bearing of costs in whole or in part. 3. The possibility of a reduction of fees or costs for the purpose of granting effective access to justice is a principle determining UPC law. This must also be taken into account with respect to equity when assessing the amount of a security to be provided by a small enterprise. 4. A party that is able to pay both its own costs (court fees and representation costs) and a security set by the court is able to bear the costs. Legal aid cannot be granted in this case. |

1. Weist ein Kleinunternehmen im zuletzt erstellten Jahresabschluss einen Betriebsverlust aus und stehen Vermögenswerte als Sicherheit nicht in ausreichendem Maße zur Verfügung, ist auf Antrag des Gegners eine Sicherheitsleistung nach Regel 158 EPGVerfO anzuordnen. 2. Bei der Bemessung der Sicherheitsleistung sind für die spätere Kostenfestsetzung maßgeblich werdende Billigkeitsgründe zu berücksichtigen. Denn die Bemessung der Sicherheitsleistung hat sich an den nach Art. 69 EPGÜ festzusetzenden Kosten zu orientieren; nach Art. 69 EPGÜ können Billigkeitsgründe der Kostentragung ganz oder teilweise entgegenstehen. 3. Bei der Möglichkeit einer Gebühren- bzw. Kostenreduktion zum Zwecke der Gewährung des wirksamen Zugangs zum Recht handelt es sich um einen das EPG-Recht bestimmenden Grundsatz. Dieser ist als Billigkeitserwägung auch bei der Bemessung einer von einem Kleinunternehmen zu erbringenden Sicherheitsleistung zu beachten. 4. Eine Partei, die sowohl ihre eigenen Kosten (Gerichtsgebühren und Vertretungskosten) als auch eine gerichtlich festgesetzte Sicherheit leisten kann, ist zur Kostentragung im Stande. Prozesskostenhilfe kann in diesem Fall nicht bewilligt werden. |

The interest in ensuring that the parties present their arguments and evidence and that the Court conducts the proceedings impartially and independently, without influence and interference from external parties in the public sector, is of the paramount importance and, as such, prevails over the competing interest in access to the case file where this latter interest cannot be satisfied through access to the written pleadings or evidence of the proceedings as the matter at hand concerns a purely legal and general issue. |

It must therefore always be possible to establish good service, at least in accordance with Rule 275.2 of the Rules of Procedure. 2. Where it has not been possible to serve the application for a provisional measure in accordance with Rule 274 of the Rules of Procedure and where there is no indication that the decision by default, which is issued subsequently in the same proceedings, can be served in accordance with Rule 274 of the Rules of Procedure, it is not necessary to attempt to serve the decision by default in accordance with Rule 274 of the Rules of Procedure before an order is made under Rule 275.2 of the Rules of Procedure. |
