Standing of Non-Party Procedural Participants to Appeal Criminal Decisions
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court addressed the standing of non-party procedural participants, specifically the injured person or complainant, to appeal a decision under the Code of Criminal Procedure. The court reasoned that while formal parties are clearly entitled to appeal, "other procedural participants" acquire party status and thus the right to appeal (beschwerdelegitimiert) only if they are *directly affected in their rights* by the decision in question, such as a decision to discontinue proceedings; a mere complainant without direct material impact on their legally protected interests lacks the standing to challenge the discontinuation of the criminal proceedings.
