Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellant's right to be heard was violated because he allegedly could not reply to the appeal responses before the cantonal judgment.
Decisione estratta
No violation: after notification of the responses, the appellant had two full weeks to indicate a wish to reply, which was sufficient in the circumstances.
Motivazione estratta
The right of reply requires that parties be able to react to submissions, but the court may deem silence after a reasonable period as a waiver; the cantonal court could do so here.
