Key legal question
Whether the public law appeal was admissible despite the bank's independent alternative ground upheld on reform appeal.
Extracted holding
The appellant lacked a current and practical interest in the public law appeal because the independent subsidiary reasoning of the cantonal judgment sustained the outcome even if the principal reasoning were set aside.
Extracted reasoning
Where the challenged decision is supported by an independent alternative ground that is not successfully attacked, admission of the appeal could not change the outcome; without a practical interest, art. 88 OJ bars the remedy.
