Key legal question
Whether the appeal against the USI appeal commission decision was admissible before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extracted holding
The appeal was inadmissible because the appeal commission is not a superior cantonal court under Article 86(2) LTF in all its competences.
Extracted reasoning
The commission is also a conciliation body in private-law matters and lacks superior-court status across the full range of its jurisdiction; its review power is limited in some academic matters.
