Question juridique clé
Whether the appellants, as mere injured parties and not victims, had standing to bring a criminal appeal on the merits against the dismissal/non-entry decision.
Solution extraite
No. Mere injured parties lack a legally protected interest to challenge the merits of a decision refusing to prosecute.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 81 LTF, only persons with the required protected interest may appeal; injured parties who are neither victims nor private prosecutors cannot attack the merits of a discontinuance or refusal to promote prosecution.
