Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court could review and reduce the compensation despite the respondent's allegedly insufficient request for relief.
Extracted holding
The cantonal court could interpret the appeal request broadly and review the amount of compensation within the scope of the appeal.
Extracted reasoning
Requests are construed by their meaning, not literal wording; a request against the financial burdens of the decision could encompass the annulment of both costs and compensation, and even the lesser request for reduction was included under the principle of 'in maiore minus'.
