Key legal question
Whether the civil appeal contained a legally sufficient request for relief under the Federal Supreme Court Act
Extracted holding
No. A mere request to annul and remand, without a substantive request, was insufficient in this reformative appeal.
Extracted reasoning
The appeal is generally reformative; the appellant must state what outcome on the merits is sought. A remand request alone is only exceptional when the Federal Supreme Court could not decide itself due to missing factual findings. That exception was neither evident from the judgment nor substantiated in the appeal.
