Key legal question
Whether the federal reform appeal was admissible despite the appellant's characterization of the case as non-pecuniary
Extracted holding
The dispute was pecuniary because it concerned a contract with significant patrimonial effects and an eventual damages claim.
Extracted reasoning
A declaratory action is non-pecuniary only when the right is inherently not measurable in money. Here the contractual relationship had economic significance, so Art. 44 OG did not apply.
