Key legal question
Whether the criminal complaint was filed within the statutory 30-day time limit.
Extracted holding
Only the submission of 27 December 2008 was timely; later submissions were out of time and could not be considered.
Extracted reasoning
The challenged decision was served on 19 November 2008. Taking into account the statutory standstill period, the deadline expired on 5 January 2009. The later filings were therefore late.
