Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the claimant was entitled to a public hearing and witness/party examination before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The request was rejected because the cantonal court had already held a public hearing and no decisive new evidence was expected from further testimony.
Extrahierte Begründung
Anticipated appreciation of evidence allowed the court to dispense with additional hearings; Article 6 ECHR was not violated.
