Questão jurídica principal
Whether the administrative appeal against the supervisory and appellate decisions was admissible, including the challenge to the lower authority's order.
Decisão extraída
The appellants were entitled to appeal, but the direct challenge to the supervisory authority's order was inadmissible because that order had been replaced by the appellate decision.
Fundamentação extraída
The decision had direct legal and financial effects on both the pension fund and the city. Under the devolutive effect, only the appellate decision could be challenged independently; the lower order was deemed included in the appeal.
