Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal was admissible despite no statement of appeal being filed within the statutory deadline.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Because the appellant failed to file the required written statement of appeal within 20 days after service of the reasoned judgment, the appeal was inadmissible.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 399(3) and Art. 403(1)(a) CPP, a timely appeal announcement and statement of appeal are mandatory admissibility conditions examined ex officio. The appellant did not comply with the 20-day deadline set by the first-instance court.
