Key legal question
Whether the complaint alleging a violation of the right to be heard was admissible despite non-exhaustion of cantonal remedies.
Extracted holding
The hearing-right complaint could not be examined because the cantonal remedy of nullity complaint had not been exhausted.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 75 BGG, the Federal Supreme Court only hears appeals against final cantonal instances; in Bern, a nullity complaint was available for alleged violations of the right to be heard.
