Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the federal criminal appeal is admissible despite lack of current practical interest
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appeal is inadmissible because the appellant no longer has a current practical interest in reviewing the cantonal mootness decision.
Extrahierte Begründung
The criminal proceedings against the accused had already been definitively discontinued after his death, and no concrete unpaid costs or other present legal effects were shown. No exception for questions of principle applied.
