Key legal question
Whether the federal complaint was admissible without a final cantonal decision
Extracted holding
The complaint was inadmissible because it was not directed against a final cantonal decision; an appeal lay first to the St. Gallen Administrative Appeals Commission.
Extracted reasoning
Federal complaint under Art. 72 ff. BGG is available only against final cantonal decisions under Art. 75(1) BGG. Since the challenged KESB order was still subject to a cantonal remedy under Arts. 450 ff. ZGB, the Federal Court could not enter the case.
