Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal met the formal requirements of a request and reasoning
Extracted holding
The appeal did not contain a valid request or any sufficient reasoning showing how the challenged judgment violated federal law.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 42(1) BGG requires the relief sought and reasoning; under Art. 108(1)(b) BGG, insufficiently reasoned appeals are not entered into. Even as a lay appeal, a minimal explanation was required, but none was provided.
