Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal was admissible given the amount in dispute under Art. 59 and 60(2) OG.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appeal was inadmissible because the counterclaim amount could not be added to the main claim, and the declaratory claim was only a pre-emptive response to the counterclaim and did not count toward the threshold.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 60(2) OG, the amount of a counterclaim is not aggregated with the main claim. The plaintiff's second request merely anticipated a defense against the later counterclaim and concerned the same dispute over repayment; counting it would allow parties to circumvent the statutory minimum amount.
