Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal remained admissible after the respondent abandoned enforcement and the case became moot.
Extracted holding
The legal interest in having the appeal decided had ceased to exist; the appeal had to be struck off the docket.
Extracted reasoning
Because the respondent, after the appeal was filed, no longer sought to enforce the obligation to pay CHF 115,000 in WIR, the controversy disappeared. The court therefore discontinued the proceedings under Art. 32(2) BGG.
