Questão jurídica principal
Whether the federal criminal appeal was admissible despite not being directed against a final cantonal decision.
Decisão extraída
The complaint was inadmissible because the challenged cantonal ruling was not a final decision and the filing did not contest the non-payment-based termination of the cantonal appeal.
Fundamentação extraída
The judgment of the criminal court was not the last cantonal instance under Art. 80(1) BGG. The appellate court's letters did not end the proceedings within the meaning of Art. 90 BGG. The complaint did not address the formless closure of the cantonal appeal after failure to pay the cost advance, so the reasoning requirements of Arts. 42(2) and 106(2) BGG were not met.
