Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal social insurance court was lawfully composed despite one assessor no longer meeting domicile requirements.
Decisione estratta
The court composition was unlawful because one assessor no longer satisfied the cantonal eligibility requirement of domicile in Geneva, engaging the right to a lawful, competent, independent and impartial tribunal.
Motivazione estratta
Under cantonal law, assessors must have political rights in Geneva and be domiciled there. A judge who no longer met this condition when deliberating and issuing the judgment could infringe Art. 30(1) of the Constitution; the defect was sufficiently raised and required annulment.
