Question juridique clé
Whether the bank had standing to appeal the MLAT interim order ordering disclosure of client account records and witness questioning.
Solution extraite
No. The bank was only indirectly affected because the measures concerned its clients' data, not the bank's own protected interests or business secrets.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 80h lit. b IRSG, only persons personally and directly affected may complain. After the 1997 revision, a bank that must disclose client information is generally not directly affected; standing belongs to the account holder, unless the bank's own interests are touched.
