Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the federal criminal appeal could be entered into despite an unsigned brief under Art. 42(5) LTF.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No, because the Court could already see that the appeal would be inadmissible for substantive reasons even if the signature defect were cured.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 42(5) LTF does not apply when a formal defect is accompanied by a substantive defect that would still prevent the Court from hearing the case.
