Swiss Civil Procedure Code
(Civil Procedure Code, CPC)

¹ If it is im­possible or un­reas­on­able to quanti­fy the amount of the debt at the start of the pro­ceed­ings, the plaintiff may bring an ac­tion for an un­quan­ti­fied debt. However, the plaintiff must in­dic­ate a min­im­al amount as a pro­vi­sion­al value in dis­pute.

² Once evid­ence is taken or the re­quired in­form­a­tion fur­nished by the parties or third parties, the court shall set a dead­line for the parties to quanti­fy their claim.⁵⁵ The seised court main­tains com­pet­ence even if the value in dis­pute ex­ceeds its ma­ter­i­al jur­is­dic­tion.
