Criminal revision dismissed: absence of legal error in judgment despite supplementary defense submission.

The Federal Court of Justice’s 5th Criminal Senate dismissed the defendant’s appeal against the judgment of the Regional Court of Itzehoe as unfounded and rejected his cost complaint, thereby upholding the lower court’s decision and ordering the defendant to bear the costs of the appeal and the necessary expenses of the auxiliary plaintiffs. The dispute concerned the defendant’s challenge to a criminal conviction, where the appellate review found no legal errors to the defendant’s disadvantage based on the grounds submitted in the revision. The decision was grounded in the principle that a revision is only admissible if it demonstrates a legal error affecting the defendant’s interests, a standard the defendant failed to meet, resulting in the finality of the original judgment.
