Key legal question
Whether the civil appeal was admissible despite the value threshold
Extracted holding
The dispute was valued at CHF 16,500, below the CHF 30,000 threshold, and no question of fundamental importance justified an exception.
Extracted reasoning
For a court-appointed administrator, a three-year term made the tripled annual fee the proper value in dispute; the asserted legal issue was not of fundamental importance because published case law exists and the matter can arise again.
