Key legal question
Whether the complainant had standing to challenge the dismissal of the criminal complaint before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extracted holding
No. Because it alleged only damage to patrimonial interests and no direct injury to physical, psychological, or sexual integrity, it was not a victim under the LAVI and lacked standing on the merits.
Extracted reasoning
A non-victim may appeal on the merits only in narrow exceptions. Here the complaint concerned property interests only, so the appellant could not contest the facts or criminal-law application; the appeal was therefore manifestly inadmissible under Art. 108(1)(a) LTF.
