Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal appeal was admissible despite doubts about monetary nature, value in dispute, and current legal interest.
Decisione estratta
The court left admissibility open, noting serious doubts about current interest after the appellant took early retirement and received salary until departure.
Motivazione estratta
The appellant had already received his salary until retirement and did not show any remaining legal interest in reinstatement or a declaration of unlawfulness; therefore the admissibility questions need not be decided because the case fails on the merits.
