Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appellants had standing to appeal on civil claims against the cantonal official
Decisão extraída
They lacked standing because any damages claim was governed by cantonal public liability law, which excludes a direct action against the agent.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Ticino public liability rules, the public entity отвечает for damage caused by public agents and the injured party has no direct civil action against the agent; therefore Art. 81(1)(b)(5) LTF was not met.
