Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily assessed the evidence in finding that no simple partnership bound the parties
Decisione estratta
No. The Federal Court held that the cantonal court could reasonably rely on the absence of any signed contract and related circumstances.
Motivazione estratta
The appellants merely offered an appellatory alternative account. The challenged findings were not manifestly untenable, and the court's view that the payments did not show tacit acceptance of a signed-contract requirement was defensible.
