Question juridique clé
Is the appeal to the Federal Supreme Court admissible against a cantonal decision not rendered by a superior court?
Solution extraite
No. Since 1 January 2011, a civil appeal is admissible only against a cantonal decision issued by a superior court; this requirement was not met here.
Motifs extraits
The challenged decision came from the president of the district court acting as lower supervisory authority under the debt enforcement law, not from a superior cantonal court. The lack of a superior-court instance makes the appeal manifestly inadmissible under the simplified procedure.
