Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal authority was bound by the Federal Supreme Court’s remand ruling
Decisione estratta
Yes. The binding effect of a remand decision follows from federal law, not from the repealed cantonal provision invoked by the authority.
Motivazione estratta
The authority cited an outdated cantonal rule, but the Federal Supreme Court held that a lower authority remains bound by the legal views expressed in a remand decision as a matter of unwritten federal law.
