Questão jurídica principal
Whether the proper federal remedy is public-law or civil-law appeal for compulsory contributions to a vocational training fund after federal extension.
Decisão extraída
The obligation became a public-law duty once the Federal Council extended participation to all firms in the branch; therefore the public-law appeal was admissible.
Fundamentação extraída
The contribution initially stems from a private association, but the Federal Council's extension under Art. 60(3) LFPr turns the duty into a public-law obligation binding third parties; unlike extended collective agreements, the mechanism is based on public authority.
