Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cassation declaration was admissible without a motivated brief within ten days
Decisione estratta
No. An unmotivated declaration of appeal had to be supplemented by a motivated brief within ten days after receipt of the complete judgment; that was not done.
Motivazione estratta
The appellant's counsel received the complete judgment on 5 October 2009 but filed no supplementary brief within the legal period. The criminal cassation court therefore could not enter into the matter.
