Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court committed a formal denial of justice by not deciding the suspension request before the fee-extension request.
Solution extraite
Yes. Once suspension and extension requests are filed together, the suspension request must be decided first; if the fee obligation is carved out from the suspension, the extension request must be addressed. Failing to do so was a formal denial of justice.
Motifs extraits
A suspension means the proceedings are put on hold, which generally suspends procedural deadlines. But if the authority excludes the cost-advance deadline from the suspension, it must rule on the extension request; the lower court neither decided nor reasoned on it.
