Kernrechtsfrage
Is the reform appeal admissible against the cantonal judgment on preliminary issues?
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The challenged judgment was incidental, not final or partial, and the requirements for an immediate appeal under Art. 50 OJ were not met.
Extrahierte Begründung
The cantonal ruling resolved only preliminary questions that were part of the reasoning for the later payment and release claims. It did not end the proceedings, and a federal ruling on those questions could not finally terminate the litigation.
