Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal court had to hold a public hearing under Article 6 ECHR
Extrahierter Entscheid
The refusal to hold a requested public hearing violated Article 6(1) ECHR.
Extrahierte Begründung
The request was clear, timely, and not abusive. The dispute concerned ordinary social insurance issues, not a highly technical matter, and the written procedure did not justify dispensing with a hearing.
