Sintesi Omnilex

The defendant’s revision against a Munich I Regional Court judgment succeeded. The Federal Court of Justice held that an absolute ground of appeal existed because the Regional Court decided on severance and interruption of the proceedings during the main hearing while defence counsel was absent. The judgment was therefore set aside and the case remitted to another criminal chamber of the Regional Court for a new hearing and decision, including costs of the appeal.

Massima Omnilex

§ 338 Nr. 5 StPO; absolute ground of appeal where a procedural decision is taken in main proceedings in the absence of defence counsel. If the court decides on severance or interruption during the main hearing while the accused is not defended because counsel has failed to appear, the violation constitutes an absolute revision ground; the judgment must be quashed under § 349 Abs. 4 StPO and the matter remitted for fresh adjudication (consid. 1).

Titelzeile

Strafverfahren: Abwesenheit eines Verteidigers während der Verhandlung über die Abtrennung eines verbundenen Verfahrens

Tenor

Auf die Revision des Angeklagten wird das Urteil des Landgerichts München I vom 20. Dezember 2012 gemäß § 349 Abs. 4 StPO aufgehoben.

Die Sache wird zu neuer Verhandlung und Entscheidung, auch über die Kosten des Rechtsmittels, an eine andere Strafkammer des Landgerichts zurückverwiesen.

Gründe

1 Der Senat folgt dem umfassenden Aufhebungsantrag des Generalbundesanwalts. Es liegt der absolute Revisionsgrund des § 338 Nr. 5 StPO vor, weil das Landgericht die Entscheidung über die Abtrennung und Unterbrechung des Verfahrens gegen diesen Angeklagten in der Hauptverhandlung vom 6. November 2012 getroffen hat. In dieser Hauptverhandlung wurde der Angeklagte nicht verteidigt, weil sein Verteidiger nicht erschienen war (BGH, Beschluss vom 13. April 2010 - 3 StR 24/10, StV 2011, 650).

Questioni giuridiche chiave estratte da Omnilex

Questione giuridica chiave

Whether the judgment had to be set aside because the severance/suspension decision was taken in the absence of defence counsel.

Decisione estratta

Yes. The absolute ground for appeal under § 338 No. 5 StPO was present because the relevant decision was made in a main hearing at which the defendant was not represented by counsel.

Motivazione estratta

The Regional Court decided on severance and interruption during the main hearing of 6 November 2012. Since defence counsel had not appeared, the defendant was unrepresented when that procedural decision was taken; this amounts to a violation covered by the absolute ground of appeal.
