This article deals with the decision of the Supreme Court (3 Ob 132/15f) and discusses its particularities. The special significance of that decision can be found in an explicit statement, made by the Court for the first time, that the commitment period of 15 years is permissible. However, the appropriate duration must be assessed on a case-by-case basis. In the present case, that is not surprising. The significance for the case law only emerges later. The previous case law assumed that the consumer is entitled to an ordinary right of termination in the event of an excessively long commitment period.
