Questão jurídica principal
Whether the administrative court appeal was admissible despite addressing only the merits of the firearms permit dispute and not the non-entry decision.
Decisão extraída
No. The appeal lacked specific, case-related reasoning directed at the cantonal non-entry ruling, so the Federal Court would not examine the merits.
Fundamentação extraída
An appeal must address the decisive reasoning of the challenged decision. Because the cantonal court issued a procedural non-entry decision and the appellant argued only the substantive permit question, the mandatory reasoning requirement was not met.
