Question juridique clé
Whether the federal administrative appeal was admissible despite the lack of a cantonal judicial last instance under Art. 98a OG.
Solution extraite
No. The cantonal decision should have been reviewed in last instance by a judicial authority; without such a decision, the appeal to the Federal Tribunal was inadmissible for failure to exhaust cantonal instances.
Motifs extraits
Art. 98a OG directly requires the Cantons to establish a judicial authority where the decision is directly appealable to the Federal Tribunal. Because the challenged cantonal government decision was not issued by such a judicial instance, the Federal Tribunal could not enter the merits.
