Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal decision on prescription could be challenged immediately before the Federal Court under Art. 50 OG
Decisão extraída
Yes, exceptionally, because immediate review could end the case and avoid lengthy, costly evidence proceedings.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Court found the appeal admissible despite the interlocutory nature of the cantonal ruling, given the specific economy-of-procedure considerations and the defendant co-respondent's default status.
