Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily refused to suspend the criminal proceedings pending the civil dispute.
Solution extraite
The refusal to stay the criminal case was not arbitrary because the criminal court itself could establish the relevant facts and the civil court had no superior means of investigation.
Motifs extraits
Suspension under cantonal law is exceptional; criminal courts normally decide civil-incidental issues themselves, and this case did not require technical findings that only the civil court could make.
