Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the civil appeal was admissible despite the value threshold after both cantonal appeals were withdrawn
Decisione estratta
The ordinary civil appeal was inadmissible because the dispute value for the remaining appellate matter did not reach CHF 15,000.
Motivazione estratta
For end judgments, the value is determined by the claims still contested before the cantonal instance. Once both appeals were withdrawn, only costs remained before the Appellationshof; the original merits claims no longer counted toward value.
