Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appeal was admissible against the cantonal decision on the wife's maintenance and costs.
Decisão extraída
The appeal was admissible only for the spousal maintenance issue; it was inadmissible as to cantonal costs because those are not governed by federal civil law.
Fundamentação extraída
The amount in dispute exceeded the statutory threshold, and the federal appeal was timely. However, cantonal costs could not be challenged in reform appeal under federal civil law rules.
