Questão jurídica principal
Whether postal service of contravention decisions in Romania invalidated the conviction.
Decisão extraída
The challenge was inadmissible and, in any event, unfounded because the appeal concerned the judicial conviction, not the formal validity of the initial notices, and the service qualified as a judicial authority for the convention.
Fundamentação extraída
The court held that the Geneva contraventions service could send documents directly under the applicable mutual legal assistance regime. The appellant still obtained adversarial judicial review and did not show any impairment of defense rights.
