Question juridique clé
Whether the complaint alleging excessive delay in the cantonal proceedings was admissible and well-founded.
Solution extraite
The Court did not enter into the complaint insofar as it alleged undue delay, because no specific request for a declaratory finding of delay was made and the required current legal interest was lacking.
Motifs extraits
A complaint for delay normally requires an ongoing practical interest; once the delayed decision has been issued, that interest may lapse. The appellant also did not formulate the necessary request for a declaration of a violation of the accelerated-proceedings guarantee.
