Key legal question
Whether the appellants had a legally protected interest to challenge the cantonal insurance court's dismissal for lack of standing
Extracted holding
Yes. They had an immediate, current and practical interest in having the contribution classification of the CHF 88,875 payment reviewed on the merits.
Extracted reasoning
The disputed qualification could affect whether the payment counted as wage subject to paritary contributions or as self-employed income; denying standing would bar judicial review of that classification.
