Kernrechtsfrage
Whether Y. had party status in the cantonal appeal proceedings
Extrahierter Entscheid
Y. was not entitled to be treated as a separate party because the cantonal appeal had not been filed personally by him; he was treated as represented by his wife and employer.
Extrahierte Begründung
Since only the spouse and the employer filed the cantonal appeal, the instructing judge had no constitutional duty to address notices directly to Y., and no arbitrariness arose from treating him as represented.
