Question juridique clé
Whether staatsrechtliche Beschwerde was the proper remedy against the cantonal judgment
Solution extraite
Yes. The case concerned cantonal family allowances, so the ordinary federal remedy lay only by way of constitutional complaint; the Federal Insurance Court had no jurisdiction.
Motifs extraits
Cantons legislate autonomously on family allowances; the substantive basis remained cantonal law even if treaty norms had to be considered. Treaty violations may be raised under Art. 84(1)(c) OG.
