Whether the appeal was admissible despite being filed in a foreign language without a French translation.
No. Because the appellant did not comply with the invitation to file a French translation, the appeal could not be considered and was inadmissible.
Under Art. 67 CPP and cantonal rules, the language of criminal proceedings in Vaud is French. The appellant did not remedy the language defect within the set deadline, so the court could not enter into the merits.
