Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal president wrongly declined jurisdiction over requested interim declaratory orders
Solution extraite
The refusal was not arbitrary: § 240 ZPO BL limits interim relief to measures against unlawful acts or omissions and does not allow provisional declaratory orders where no actionable claim is pending.
Motifs extraits
A mistaken official indication could not create jurisdiction, and the lawyer had a duty to verify jurisdiction. The constitutional principle of good faith was therefore not violated.
