Art. 40 LTAF · Dibattimento
Laddove si debbano giudicare diritti di carattere civile o accuse penali a tenore dell’articolo 6 paragrafo 1 della Convenzione del 4 novembre 1950 per la salvaguardia dei diritti dell’uomo e delle libertà fondamentali, il giudice dell’istruzione ordina un dibattimento pubblico: a. ad istanza di parte; o b. qualora importanti interessi pubblici lo giustifichino.
Il presidente della corte o il giudice unico può ordinare un dibattimento pubblico anche in altri casi.
Qualora vi sia da temere un pericolo per la sicurezza, l’ordine pubblico o i buoni costumi o qualora l’interesse di una persona in causa lo giustifichi, il dibattimento può svolgersi in tutto o in parte a porte chiuse.
