Question juridique clé
Whether the reform appeal could challenge the application of Italian law in a pecuniary civil case.
Solution extraite
No. In pecuniary civil matters, misapplication of foreign law applicable under Swiss private international law cannot be reviewed by reform appeal.
Motifs extraits
The remedy under art. 43a OG covers only failure to apply foreign law when Swiss PIL requires it, not incorrect application of that foreign law. Constitutional criticism of the rule could not be examined by the court.
