Dissolution Reversed Due to Subsequent Compliance, Liability for Costs Upheld
Cited in the reasoning as the source of the organizational deficiency that justified the initial dissolution order, although this provision is not directly cited in the dispositive orders 1-4. However, given that the appeal was admitted based on subsequent compliance with this rule, and the text refers heavily to it in justifying the context of the annulment (Order 1), it's considered crucial to the decision's context, even if not strictly in the final enforceable orders 1-4. Given the strict rule to only include provisions explicitly cited in the dispositive, and observing that Order 1 only annuls the decision, while Orders 2-4 are procedural/cost related, I must re-evaluate. Since Art. 718 al. 4 CO is *not* cited in the dispositive orders 1-4, it must be excluded based on the rules.
