Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the filing to the cantonal authority preserved the time limit for a constitutional complaint to the Federal Court.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes, the June 29, 2002 filing had to be forwarded to the Federal Court and was treated as timely, because only a constitutional complaint was available and the cantonal authority should have transmitted it.
Extrahierte Begründung
The authority violated its duty to forward the misdirected filing under Art. 32 OG; the delay was not attributable to the appellant.
