Question juridique clé
Whether the Zurich Administrative Court could decide the appeal by single judge under cantonal procedural law.
Solution extraite
The single-judge competence was a permissible interpretation of cantonal procedural law and did not violate the constitutional right to a lawful judge.
Motifs extraits
The challenged interpretation of § 38 Abs. 2 lit. b VRG/ZH was at least tenable and the federal court only reviews such a question for arbitrariness.
