Cassation Court dismisses appeal on prescription claim due to partial annulment leaving satellite crimes' judgment intact.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Court of Cassation declared the appeal inadmissible, ordering the appellants to pay court costs and fines. The defense argued that the Supreme Court's prior annulment of the most serious crime should have triggered prescription for the satellite crime due to the continuity link. The Court rejected this, ruling that the partial annulment did not erase the final judgment on the satellite crime, thus preventing the prescription defense from applying.
Legislator headnote
AI generatedArt. 625-bis c.p.p.; Art. 616 c.p.p.: A partial annulment of a conviction for continued crimes based on a specific fact does not extinguish the res judicata on the remaining crimes, thereby precluding a prescription defense for the satellite offenses.
