Key legal question
Whether the civil appeal was admissible despite the public-law basis of the cantonal liability claim.
Extracted holding
The civil appeal was admissible because the dispute was pecuniary, of public-law origin, but closely connected to civil law and met the value threshold.
Extracted reasoning
A public-law liability claim against a hospital entity does not exclude the civil appeal where the matter is directly linked to civil law and the Streitwert is reached.
