Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Federal Supreme Court could hear the case as a direct public-law action
Extrahierter Entscheid
The case was to be treated as an administrative action within the Federal Supreme Court's original jurisdiction, not as a civil action, and could be heard directly.
Extrahierte Begründung
The special cantonal liability provision and the federal procedural rules made the administrative-action route applicable; the action was timely and the Court had jurisdiction.
