Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court violated the right to a fair trial by not reconvening or re-hearing absent witnesses.
Solution extraite
No. The appellant showed neither a binding cantonal rule requiring ex officio summons nor any procedural arbitrariness; moreover, he had himself requested and obtained witness hearings, and even renounced one requested witness.
Motifs extraits
The complaint lacked substantiation under Art. 106(2) LTF. The appellant had actively sought witness evidence in appeal and cannot complain that the court did not act on its own motion in the manner alleged.
