Key legal question
Whether the reform appeal met the statutory amount in dispute required for admissibility.
Extracted holding
The amount in dispute was below CHF 8,000, so the reform appeal was not open.
Extracted reasoning
For property liens, the amount in dispute equals the secured claim when the pledged property clearly exceeds that claim. Here the CHF 6,275 claim was below the CHF 8,000 threshold of Art. 46 OJ.
