Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the missed appeal deadline should be restored under Art. 94 StPO
Extrahierter Entscheid
Restoration was denied because the appellant failed to make credible that he was without fault; language difficulties and counsel's conduct did not excuse the delay.
Extrahierte Begründung
The appellant understood the discontinuance decision sufficiently to know he wished to challenge it, knew a deadline was running, and could have acted in time. A represented party generally bears the conduct of counsel, absent serious misconduct.
