Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal court violated Article 6 ECHR by refusing the requested public hearing.
Decisão extraída
The request was timely and none of the recognised exceptions justified dispensing with a public hearing; the refusal violated the procedural guarantee.
Fundamentação extraída
The dispute was not highly technical, the complaint was not obviously inadmissible or unfounded, and no other exceptional reason outweighed the right to a public hearing.
