Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the municipality had standing to file a public law appeal in its own name for alleged communal autonomy violations.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Only the municipality as a legal person may be a party; the municipal executive may act for the municipality, but it cannot litigate in its own name because it is not the holder of communal autonomy.
Extrahierte Begründung
Standing under Art. 88 OG is strictly personal. The appeal was filed only in the name of the municipal executive, as shown by the appeal and power of attorney, so it had to be declared inadmissible.
