Question juridique clé
Whether the commune had standing to bring a public law appeal against the refusal of a road subsidy.
Solution extraite
Yes, because the commune complained of a violation of municipal autonomy and of a formal denial of justice; standing was therefore recognized.
Motifs extraits
Public-law remedies generally protect constitutional rights of persons, not public entities acting as authorities. An exception exists for communes when they invoke autonomy or related procedural guarantees.
