Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal appeal was admissible despite uncertainty about the dispute value and limited review of cantonal law issues.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was treated as admissible only within the limits applicable to constitutional review; to the extent it relied on cantonal law, only constitutional rights could be examined.
Motivazione estratta
The matter was a civil-law related public-law dispute of a pecuniary nature; however, the court left the value issue open because the complaints failed anyway under the stricter review standard.
