Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellant had standing to challenge transmission of bank documents in mutual legal assistance proceedings
Extrahierter Entscheid
He lacked standing; as alleged beneficial owner he did not prove that the dissolved company made him clearly identifiable as beneficiary, and the circumstances suggested possible abusive dissolution.
Extrahierte Begründung
In MLA cases an economic beneficiary of a legal entity may appeal only exceptionally if the entity has been dissolved and can no longer act. The appellant had to prove the dissolution and his status by official documents. The filed notarized instrument did not establish that he remained the beneficiary. The record also showed another beneficiary for one account and a deceased co-beneficiary, while the dissolution appeared close to the criminal investigation and could indicate abuse of rights.
