Questão jurídica principal
Whether the reform appeal was admissible against a ruling that only dismissed the tort-law basis as time-barred while contract claims remained pending.
Decisão extraída
The decision was not final and not a qualifying partial decision; immediate reform appeal was therefore unavailable.
Fundamentação extraída
The cantonal ruling did not end the litigation, because the contractual basis still had to be examined. It merely rejected one legal ground for the same monetary claim. Under the Federal Judiciary Act rules on final, partial, and incidental decisions, that is not enough for immediate appeal.
