Questão jurídica principal
Whether the civil appeal was admissible despite lacking substantive conclusions on the merits.
Decisão extraída
The appeal was formally admissible in principle, but the absence of any merits conclusion made its admissibility doubtful; the Court did not rely on that point because the appeal would fail in any event.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 42 and 107 LTF, the appellant must generally seek more than annulment alone unless the Federal Supreme Court could only remand. That exception was not evidently met.
