Questão jurídica principal
Whether the federal criminal appeal was sufficiently reasoned under Art. 42 BGG
Decisão extraída
No. The appellant merely referred to his prior appeal brief and did not explain in the appeal itself how the challenged judgment violated the law.
Fundamentação extraída
Art. 42(1) and (2) BGG require a concise statement in the appeal itself; cross-reference to earlier submissions is inadmissible. Because the appeal contained no legal arguments, it was manifestly insufficiently reasoned.
