Omnilex summary

The Ticino Administrative Court dealt with an appeal against a State Council authorization allowing slot machines in a building. Before the court could decide the merits, the appellant's lawyer informed the court that the appeal was withdrawn. The court therefore held that the proceedings were exhausted, struck the appeal from the docket, waived court fees and expenses, and ordered the appellant to pay CHF 500 in party compensation to the respondent.

Omnilex headnote

Withdrawal of the appeal; striking from the docket and costs: where the appellant withdraws the appeal, the proceedings are terminated for lack of a live dispute and the case is removed from the docket. In the absence of a decision on the merits, no court fees or expenses are levied, but party compensation may still be awarded to the opposing party (consid. 1-3).
