Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the criminal appeal was admissible, including a late filing by the defendant's wife
Decisione estratta
The defendant's appeal was generally admissible, but the wife’s separate submission was inadmissible as late, new, and filed by a person without protected interest.
Motivazione estratta
The challenged judgment was final, from the last cantonal instance, and filed in time by the accused; the wife's letter and exhibits failed the timeliness, new-evidence, and standing requirements.
