Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the Bau- und Justizdepartement violated the prohibition of legal delay in the 2015 objection proceedings
Decisione estratta
Yes. The department took more than a year to decide a simple matter and should have ruled before the new invoice was issued.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that the right to a decision within a reasonable time was breached; the explanation for the delay was not convincing, and the delay was unjustified given the uncomplicated subject matter.
