Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal against the prosecutor’s letter was admissible despite the lack of an explicit request and limited reasoning.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The Court did not decide definitively whether the letter was an appealable decision, because the appeal was inadmissible in any event for insufficient reasoning.
Extrahierte Begründung
The appellant did not contest the decisive point, namely that the alleged offence was time-barred. His reliance on when he learned of the statement was irrelevant to the limitation period for defamation-type offences. Therefore the appeal failed to meet the reasoning requirements under Art. 108 BGG.
