The appellate court dismissed the defendant's appeal and ordered the termination of proceedings because the criminal liability for the traffic violation had expired. The defense argued that the applicable law had changed, but the court focused on the statutory limitation period. Consequently, the court ruled that the expiration of liability automatically triggered the procedural requirement to terminate the case.
