Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appeal was admissible without a quantified prayer for relief regarding the requested party compensation.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was inadmissible because the appellant did not state a quantified request and the submissions did not reveal the amount sought.
Motivazione estratta
A civil-law appeal to the Federal Supreme Court is a reformatory remedy and therefore normally requires a material, quantified request. This also applies to an isolated challenge to costs and compensation. Since neither the prayer for relief nor the reasoning allowed the amount claimed to be determined, the court could not enter into the appeal.
