Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal court violated constitutional guarantees by admitting the client's late appeal against the first-instance moderation decision after a faxed filing was cured by later submission of the signed original.
Decisione estratta
The appeal court could treat the faxed filing as a curable procedural defect under cantonal procedural law; no constitutional violation was shown.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that the complaint did not demonstrate arbitrary application of the cantonal rules. In any event, the defect concerned the absence of an original signature on a faxed appeal, which the LPJA allowed to be cured by a short deadline. The original appeal was filed the next day, so the appeal was admissible.
