Art. 85 CPP · Forma delle comunicazioni e della notificazione

Salvo che il presente Codice disponga altrimenti, le comunicazioni delle autorità penali rivestono la forma scritta.

La notificazione è fatta mediante invio postale raccomandato o in altro modo contro ricevuta, segnatamente per il tramite della polizia.

La notificazione è considerata avvenuta quando l’invio è preso in consegna dal destinatario oppure da un suo impiegato o da una persona che vive nella stessa economia domestica aventi almeno 16 anni. Sono fatti salvi i casi in cui le autorità penali dispongono che una comunicazione sia notificata personalmente al destinatario.

La notificazione è pure considerata avvenuta: a. in caso di invio postale raccomandato non ritirato, il settimo giorno dal tentativo di consegna infruttuoso, sempre che il destinatario dovesse aspettarsi una notificazione; b. in caso di notificazione in mani proprie, quando il destinatario rifiuta la consegna e il latore ne attesta il rifiuto, il giorno del rifiuto.
