Questão jurídica principal
Whether home detention was available for the custodial part of a partly suspended sentence exceeding twelve months in total.
Decisão extraída
No. The cantonal rule limits home detention to sentences whose pronounced duration is 20 days to 12 months; a sentence longer than 12 months is excluded even if only part of it must be served.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Court held that the cantonal regulation is autonomous and may set restrictive eligibility criteria within the federal authorization. A broader interpretation would exceed the federal authorization and lack sufficient legal basis.
