Questão jurídica principal
Whether the mixed federal and new-style criminal appeals against the pre-BGG judgment and later cantonal cassation decision were procedurally admissible and could be treated as one appeal.
Decisão extraída
The filings were to be treated as one criminal appeal; the pre-BGG judgment could be challenged together with the later cassation decision, but only where a final cantonal decision existed.
Fundamentação extraída
Because the cassation decision was issued after 1 January 2007, the new Federal Supreme Court Act applied to that decision, and Art. 100(6) BGG allowed the earlier upper-court judgment to be challenged together with it. However, issues not raised before the cantonal cassation court were not yet ripe for federal review.
