Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the civil law appeal was admissible despite the low amount in dispute and absence of a fundamental legal question
Decisione estratta
The civil law appeal was inadmissible because the amount in dispute did not reach the statutory minimum and no fundamental legal question was sufficiently shown.
Motivazione estratta
The dispute before the Federal Court concerned only the challenged party-cost award, not the original CHF 240,982.05 claim. The appellant did not convincingly show a question of general and urgent importance, and the transitional-law argument under Art. 404 ZPO was not enough.
