Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the public law appeal could seek annulment of the cantonal department decision as well as the last cantonal judgment.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appeal was inadmissible to the extent it also sought annulment of the first-instance departmental decision, because only the last cantonal decision may be challenged.
Extrahierte Begründung
Public law appeal lies only against final cantonal decisions; absent special exceptions, prior-instance decisions cannot be attacked in parallel.
