Key legal question
Whether the criminal appeal met the Federal Supreme Court’s motivation requirements
Extracted holding
No. The appellant did not explain in a legally sufficient way why charging him with the costs of the revision proceedings violated federal law.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 42 paras. 1 and 2 LTF, the appeal must briefly show how the challenged decision violates the law. The appellant only explained why he sought revision and that he lacked funds, but he did not address the legality of the cost allocation. The appeal was therefore inadmissible under Art. 108 para. 1 lit. b LTF.
