Key legal question
Which legal remedy was available against the cantonal appellate decision in the mutual legal assistance matter?
Extracted holding
The appeal in public law matters was not the correct remedy; the ordinary remedy remained the administrative law appeal under the transitional regime.
Extracted reasoning
Because the first-instance cantonal decision was issued before 1 January 2007, Art. 110b AIMP as lex specialis prevailed over the LTF transitional rules; therefore the prior law continued to govern the remedy.
