Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the public-law appeal remained admissible after the Federal Court admitted the parallel reform appeal and replaced the cantonal decision.
Decisione estratta
The appeal had become moot because the Federal Court's reform judgment replaced the cantonal decision, leaving no decision susceptible to attack by public-law appeal.
Motivazione estratta
When the Federal Court departs from the general rule and examines the reform appeal first, and then admits it, its judgment substitutes the cantonal decision. The parallel public-law appeal therefore loses its object.
