einen Präzedenzfall schaffen Explanation: I suppose the English should read: "... bad precedent."...? "Die Versicherung lehnte die Erstattung der Behandlungskosten von XXX ab, weil dies einen aus ihrer Sicht ungünstigen Präzedenzfall geschaffen hätte." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-01-26 10:27:56 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This is what the New Oxford Dictionary says: precedence = the condition of bein considered more important than someone or something else; priority in importance, order, or rank precedent = an earlier event or action that is regarded as an example or guide to be considered in subsequent similar circumstances |
