Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the school commission violated the employee's right to be heard by first issuing a decision-like letter and only then inviting observations.
Decisione estratta
No violation: the letter of 5 February 2007 was a request for observations, and the employee had to use the given deadline.
Motivazione estratta
Good faith in procedure required her to submit comments once the commission clarified that the letter had no decision character; she could not wait to complain only after the appeal outcome.
