Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal authority had to hold a public oral hearing
Solution extraite
No public hearing was required because the case could be decided on the file and the proceedings were obviously inadmissible in that form.
Motifs extraits
Art. 30(3) BV guarantees publicity only if a hearing takes place; Art. 6(1) ECHR does not require a hearing where no factual or legal issues exist that cannot be resolved from the written record.
