Key legal question
Whether the filed appeal was the correct remedy and could be converted into a complaint
Extracted holding
Because the dispute value was below CHF 30,000, the proper remedy was complaint rather than appeal; conversion was left open, as the result would be the same.
Extracted reasoning
The lower court's calculation placed the value in dispute at CHF 9,900. The court held that even if conversion of the wrong remedy were possible, the complaint would still fail.
