Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal met the formal reasoning requirements of Art. 42 LTF.
Extracted holding
No. The filing contained no proper prayers for relief and did not explain why the cantonal judgment violated federal law.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 42 LTF, an appeal must state conclusions and reasons. The appellant merely asked for what he believed was due and provided no legal critique of the challenged judgment, so the appeal was manifestly insufficiently reasoned.
