Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily assessed the evidence in finding that no simple partnership bound the parties
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The Federal Court held that the cantonal court could reasonably rely on the absence of any signed contract and related circumstances.
Extrahierte Begründung
The appellants merely offered an appellatory alternative account. The challenged findings were not manifestly untenable, and the court's view that the payments did not show tacit acceptance of a signed-contract requirement was defensible.
