Improved: TSB Schwäbisch Gmünd in the legal mess!

Schwäbisch Gmünd, Deutschland - in Schwäbisch Gmünd, it is bubbling! The legal disputes about the sale of the former club premises of TSB Schwäbisch Gmünd are not coming to an end. The Ellwangen public prosecutor's office is currently on the mat because of the initial suspicion of the infidelity, and for some time. The TSB has been pursuing the sale of the site on Buchstrasse for almost 15 years, which was ultimately sold to a company from Tübingen for 8.2 million euros at the end of 2020. The aim was to finance a new sports park called "Im Laichle", whose new building was already decided in 2019, as SWR.

The core of the investigation are three accused: a former club chairman, an architect and a former manager of the TSB. The accusation is in the room that they tried to acquire the property before 2020 at a higher price than the sales price achieved was ultimately. An internal decision from May 2019 is particularly explosive, which set the value of the site at EUR 3.1 million, although higher offers presented. One of these offers amounted to 12.55 million euros, which the Ellwangen district court classified as not binding.

legal turmoil and surprising judgments

The legal errors do not end. Although the TSB Schwäbisch Gmünd had requested compensation of 4.35 million euros from the opposite side, the 3rd civil chamber of the Ellwanger Regional Court rejected this claim. The judgment, which fell on October 9, 2024, was based on the claim that the sales price achieved was in line with the market. The then managing director of BPD made it clear that the maximum offer was reduced due to a ground report and planned use. Michael Hieber, board member of the TSB, was shown after the judgment Perplex and the architect Christof Preiß felt confirmed by the judgment in his position. This then put the crown on the conflict, since the TSB had to do without the difference, which he had previously claimed as compensation, as Gmünder Daily post.

The trouble about the club premises also focused on the behavior of the TSB board members. A club board has far -reaching duties, especially when it comes to representing the association in business with third parties. As [Winheller] (https://winheller.com/blog/verununtrieben-vereinsvermoegen- DEPIST-BURTE/) emphasizes, a violation of these special obligations can lead to financial disadvantages. The problem becomes particularly complex when you consider that not every asset -reducing behavior automatically leads to a criminal infidelity accusation.

The further consequences of the arguments

The investigation by the Ellwangen public prosecutor continues to continue, and the presumption of innocence applies until further notice. The allegations and the legal hurdles that the TSB must overcome could have far -reaching consequences - both for the association and for the affected board members. It remains to be seen how the situation will continue to develop and whether negotiations on outstanding demands, such as a fee claim of 450,000 euros by lawyer Werner Deininger, will develop.

A puzzle game that is far from being completely solved. Schwäbisch Gmünd can look forward to exciting developments!
