Key legal question
Is a public-law appeal admissible against the cantonal judgment concerning preventive suspension of a municipal employee?
Extracted holding
Yes, because the suspension order is an incidental decision that may cause irreparable harm and the municipality has standing to complain of a violation of its autonomy.
Extracted reasoning
The suspension immediately deprives the municipality of the statutory possibility to keep a functionary away from work for the sake of proper administration, which constitutes irreparable harm; a municipality may invoke communal autonomy when affected in its public authority capacity.
