Omnilex headnote

Suspensive effect in administrative proceedings; the authority may, in complex cases requiring time for final clarification, grant suspensive effect on request if the applicant credibly demonstrates that failure to do so would entail legal disadvantages. The measure is thus conditioned on both the procedural complexity of the matter and a plausible showing of prejudice; absent such showing, suspensive effect need not be granted.

Verwaltungsverfahren.

Voraussetzung der Gewährung aufschiebender Wirkung.

Entscheid des Regierungsrates vom 19. September 1972 (Nr. 648).

Gemäss konstanter kantonaler Verwaltungspraxis kann der Regierungsrat auf Antrag des Beschwerdeführers in komplexen und für die endgültige Abklärung eine gewisse Zeit beanspruchenden Fällen eine aufschiebende Wirkung erteilen, sofern der Beschwerdeführer glaubwürdig dartut, dass ihm bei Nichtgewährung allfällige Rechtsnachteile drohen.

Key legal question

When may suspensive effect be granted in administrative proceedings?

Extracted holding

The Government Council may grant suspensive effect on application in complex cases that require some time for final clarification, provided the applicant credibly shows that legal disadvantages would otherwise arise.

Extracted reasoning

Under consistent cantonal administrative practice, suspensive effect is an exceptional protective measure justified where the matter is complex and delayed final clarification would likely cause harm; the applicant must make those disadvantages plausible.
