Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the insurer had a subrogation claim under Art. 72 VVG against the contractor
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Art. 72 VVG did not apply because the insured's claims were contractual or, at most, based on causal liability; moreover, cantonal fire insurers are not subject to the VVG.
Extrahierte Begründung
Subrogation under Art. 72 VVG requires an extra-contractual fault-based claim against a third party. The insured owner's claim stemmed from the construction contract, and any tort claim would at most be causal liability of the employer. The cantonal insurer could not invoke a subrogated claim.
