Key legal question
Whether the civil appeal in the main docket was admissible despite the amount in dispute being below the statutory threshold.
Extracted holding
The amount in dispute did not reach the statutory minimum and no sufficiently founded issue of fundamental importance justified ordinary civil appeal.
Extracted reasoning
For end decisions, the dispute value is determined by the claims still contested before the lower instance; the quota-transfer issue was no longer at stake in the appeal below, so only the damages claim counted.
