Key legal question
Whether the appeal against the allocation of procedural costs and party compensation was admissible despite a pending cantonal request for reconsideration of that part of the judgment.
Extracted holding
The Federal Court held that the cost allocation and party compensation could be reviewed as a final cantonal decision and the appeal was admissible.
Extracted reasoning
Under Fribourg procedure, a request for reconsideration was available only for the amount of costs or compensation, not for their allocation; therefore the cantonal judgment was final on that point.
