Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal appeal against the cantonal judgment was admissible and what factual review applied.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was admissible in principle, but the Federal Supreme Court was bound by the cantonal findings and would not enter into unsupported factual challenges.
Motivazione estratta
Because the cantonal judgment predated the Federal Supreme Court Act, the remedy under the former Judicial Organization Act applied. New factual allegations, challenges to evidence assessment, and unsubstantiated offers of proof were inadmissible in the appeal.
