Whether the cantonal court had jurisdiction and the appeal was admissible at this stage
The filing of 20 August 2008 was not a proper appeal to the cantonal court; it should have been addressed to the objection authority, so no judicial remedy was open yet.
The letter concerned the pending opposition procedure and asked for reconsideration of possible lateness. Since only the Service de l’emploi could examine that request before issuing an objection decision, the court lacked a judicial basis to hear the matter.
