Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the civil appeal was admissible against the cantonal appellate judgment.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appeal was inadmissible because the challenged decision was not rendered by a higher cantonal court within the meaning of Art. 75 para. 2 LTF.
Extrahierte Begründung
As of 1 January 2011, federal remedies are admissible only against a final cantonal decision rendered by a higher court. The district court's appellate judgment did not satisfy that requirement, so simplified inadmissibility applied.
