Questão jurídica principal
Whether the complaint could rely by reference on the reasoning of a co-accused's separate constitutional complaint
Decisão extraída
Such incorporation by reference was not admissible because the constitutional complaint must contain its reasoning in the filing itself.
Fundamentação extraída
The court held that the appellant's express reference to another complaint and attempt to make it part of his own pleading could not be considered; the complaint lacked self-contained reasoning as required.
