There is way too much taxpayer’s money wasted on this dispute.

  There is absolutely no taxpayer money wasted, because civil trials are paid for by the losing party.

    Those costs aren‘t nearly covering the real costs, because otherwise justice would be really expensive.

      In this case, costs for the first trial alone are 45000 euros. Appeals are twice that. That should be plenty to cover the judge’s salary.

I used a million as the disputed amount, which is within the usual range for such trials.
