Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal court had to acquit or remand the case because the parking-offense count was absolutely time-barred
Decisão extraída
No. Under the applicable cantonal procedure, the court could itself discontinue the time-barred count; federal law did not require an acquittal or a remand.
Fundamentação extraída
Limitation does not force an acquittal; the applicable procedural law determines whether the result is discontinuance or acquittal. The appellant did not show arbitrary application of cantonal procedure.
