Question juridique clé
Whether the prosecution for forgery in documents was time-barred after the partial remand and later resentencing.
Solution extraite
No. The prosecution for forgery ended when the cantonal appellate judgment of 15 July 2009 became final on that count; the Federal Court remand concerned only the fraud-related count and resentencing.
Motifs extraits
Under the former law, prosecution was extinguished by the cantonal last-instance conviction for counts not challenged or not successful on appeal. The defendant did not validly show that the forgery conviction was attacked before the Federal Court, and the remand did not reopen that charge.
