Question juridique clé
How is the amount in dispute calculated for a federal appeal concerning one rent installment under a lease?
Solution extraite
Article 54(2) OG on the capital value of recurring benefits applies only when the right to the recurring benefit itself is disputed. Here only one rent installment was contested, so the value in dispute was that installment alone.
Motifs extraits
The claim attacked only the respondent's entitlement to the specific rent payment for the period 1 May to 15 June 1908, not the lease right as such. Therefore Art. 53 OG governed valuation, and the amount did not reach the minimum threshold under Art. 59 OG.
