Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal should be stayed pending a criminal complaint concerning alleged false testimony
Extrahierter Entscheid
A stay was refused because the criminal proceedings were uncertain in duration and were not decisive for the civil appeal.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Court held that Art. 57(2) OG leaves the stay to judicial discretion; given the age of the case, previous suspensions, and the lack of compelling reasons, the interest in timely termination prevailed.
