Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the complaint against refusal of peddling permits fell within the Federal Court's competence or that of the Federal Council.
Decisione estratta
The matter belonged to the Federal Council; the Federal Court would not enter into the complaint.
Motivazione estratta
The request concerned a cantonal measure regulating the exercise of trade and commerce. The alleged violations of equality and treaty-based equal treatment were only preliminary questions and did not create independent claims. The decisive legal character of the complaint was therefore the alleged infringement of freedom of trade and commerce, which is for the Federal Council to review.
