Question juridique clé
Whether the civil law appeal was admissible against the judgment of the district court of La Côte.
Solution extraite
The appeal was manifestly inadmissible because it was directed against a decision of a court that was not a superior cantonal court within the meaning of Art. 75 LTF.
Motifs extraits
From 1 January 2011, the Federal Tribunal may hear civil appeals only against final cantonal decisions rendered by a superior court, usually on appeal. The challenged judgment was issued by the district court, which does not satisfy this requirement.
