Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the public-law appeal was admissible despite non-exhaustion of cantonal remedies on arbitrariness in evidence assessment.
Decisione estratta
The complaint had to be brought first before the Vaud cantonal review court; because this was not done, the grievance was inadmissible.
Motivazione estratta
Art. 86 al. 1 OJ requires exhaustion of cantonal remedies. In Vaud, arbitrariness in evidence assessment can be raised by nullity appeal under Art. 444 CPC/VD, so the Federal Tribunal could not review it directly.
