Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the absence of a public oral hearing in the cantonal nullity appeal violated Article 6 ECHR.
Decisione estratta
No violation was shown because the appellate instance reviewed only legal issues and the tenant did not allege that no public hearing had been possible at first instance.
Motivazione estratta
The right to a public hearing in civil matters applies only very limitedly on appeal; where the lower fact-finding court had a public hearing or one could have been requested, Article 6 is not breached.
