Omnilex summary

The Zurich Higher Court ordered that appeal case LB110080 be joined with the related appeal case LB110079 and therefore struck off as separately concluded. The decision is a procedural consolidation order in a civil appeal over a monetary claim. The parties were the two defendants as appellants and the claimant as respondent. The court directed written notification to the parties in case LB110079.

Omnilex headnote

Joinder of related appeal proceedings; a court may, for procedural economy, consolidate parallel appeals and treat one file as separately concluded when it is resolved through joinder. Such an order is purely procedural and does not determine the merits of the underlying civil claim; the separate proceeding is discontinued only to the extent it is absorbed into the linked case.
