Key legal question
Whether the federal criminal appeal against a cantonal prison disciplinary sanction was admissible
Extracted holding
Yes. Disciplinary sanctions imposed on detainees under cantonal law based on Article 91(3) of the Criminal Code may be challenged by criminal appeal to the Federal Supreme Court.
Extracted reasoning
Such disciplinary pronouncements fall within Article 78(2)(b) BGG. Transitional rules allowed the appeal even though the challenged decision came from an administrative authority rather than a higher judicial authority.
