Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the federal appeal should be treated as administrative law appeal despite being filed as a constitutional complaint
Extrahierter Entscheid
Because the dispute concerned a residence permit and the challenged decision involved application of cantonal procedural law closely linked to federal immigration law, the Court treated the filing as an administrative law appeal.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Court held that the legal remedy was to be construed according to its substance; review of cantonal procedural rules was limited to arbitrariness and other federal constitutional violations.
