Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a standalone declaratory claim to fix the executor's fee was admissible without a separate interest
Extrahierter Entscheid
No separate declaratory interest existed because a performance claim was available and the action sought mainly to establish facts for other proceedings.
Extrahierte Begründung
Declaratory relief is subsidiary; it requires a specific interest beyond obtaining payment. A declaration intended chiefly to support criminal or disciplinary proceedings is not a proper declaratory claim.
