Legislator-Zusammenfassung

KI-generiert

The Constitutional Court declared the public prosecution's appeal inadmissible because the underlying criminal offense had already been pardoned by a lower court. The Ministry of Public Prosecution challenged the pardon, arguing it violated legal principles, while the defendants A. and B. sought to maintain their exemption from punishment. The court ruled that since the pardon was legally effective, the prosecution's attempt to revive the case lacked legal basis.

Legislator-Regeste

Articles 243 and 244 of the Constitution; where a lower court has granted a pardon for a specific transgression, any subsequent appeal by the public prosecution to reinstate the case is inadmissible.
