Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellants were entitled to challenge the dismissal under the Victims Assistance Act.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. As widow and mother of the deceased, they were treated as equivalent to the victim because the decision could affect possible civil claims.
Extrahierte Begründung
The ruling on the employer's criminal liability could influence compensation and moral damages claims; civil claims may still be asserted later in the criminal process.
