Key legal question
Whether the Administrative Court had jurisdiction over the appeal against the decision concerning the dog identification control fee.
Extracted holding
The court lacked jurisdiction and therefore could not hear the merits.
Extracted reasoning
The dispute concerned a public-law charge; under § 56(1) GO, appeals against such matters fall within the competence of the Cantonal Tax Court, which also expressly covers the dog tax. The case was therefore to be transferred.
