Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal was admissible despite the amount in dispute requirement under Art. 46 OG
Extracted holding
The appeal was inadmissible because the amount in dispute, as still contested before the last cantonal instance, did not reach CHF 8,000.
Extracted reasoning
For Art. 46 OG, the amount in dispute is determined by the claims still contested at the time of the last cantonal decision. The reference-letter wording was not shown to have remained disputed before the Obergericht, so only the quantified claims counted, which were below the threshold.
