Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal court's assessment of evidence and findings on the parties' relationship were arbitrary under Art. 9 Cst.
Decisão extraída
The appellant did not show manifestly untenable fact-finding; the cantonal court could find that the partnership ended and was replaced by brokerage/sale arrangements.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Court held that the cantonal court had considered the pre- and post-March 1995 steps, and that the appellant merely advanced his own version of the facts. No decisive ignored evidence or untenable inference was demonstrated.
