Key legal question
Whether the complaint against the Federal Council's decision to sell Swiss shares was admissible before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extracted holding
The complaint was inadmissible; no appeal lay to the Federal Supreme Court against this Federal Council act.
Extracted reasoning
A constitutional complaint was unavailable because it lies only against cantonal decisions. Administrative law appeal against Federal Council decisions is available only in the cases listed in Art. 98 lit. a and abis OG or in special statutes; no such basis existed here.
