Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the first-instance judgment could also be challenged before the Federal Supreme Court
Decisione estratta
No. The first-instance judgment could not be jointly appealed because the cantonal appeal had full review powers and the statutory conditions for co-challenge were not met.
Motivazione estratta
The appellate court had free review under cantonal procedure, so the first-instance decision was not a directly appealable separate target before the Federal Supreme Court.
