Key legal question
Whether the nullity appeal complied with the statutory pleading requirements under the former federal criminal procedure rules.
Extracted holding
No. The filing did not briefly specify which federal law provisions were violated or how; it merely expressed disagreement with the convictions.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 273(1)(b) PPF, the appellant must identify the allegedly violated federal rules and explain the violation. General assertions and objections to the facts are insufficient.
