Key legal question
Whether the complainant had standing to appeal to the Federal Supreme Court against the cantonal decision.
Extracted holding
He lacked standing because he had no civil claims within the meaning of Art. 81(1)(b)(5) LTF and alleged no formal denial of justice.
Extracted reasoning
Claims for compensation and moral damage against the Canton under Geneva state liability law are public-law claims, not civil claims actionable in criminal proceedings; the mere interest in correct application of criminal law is insufficient.
