Question juridique clé
Whether the subsidiary constitutional complaint was admissible despite the availability of a civil appeal and the nature/value of the case.
Solution extraite
The complaint was not admissible; the case was civil and met the value threshold, so the ordinary civil appeal route was in principle open, and conversion was not possible because the filing did not meet the formal requirements.
Motifs extraits
The choice of remedy depends on the nature of the case and, if pecuniary, on the value in dispute. Here the dispute was civil and exceeded CHF 30,000. Conversion was excluded because the written submission was otherwise defective.
