Questão jurídica principal
Whether the old Victim Assistance Act applied to crimes committed in 2003-2004.
Decisão extraída
Yes. Because the offences predated the 2009 revision, the former Victim Assistance Act applied.
Fundamentação extraída
Art. 48 of the revised OHG preserves the previous law for compensation and satisfaction claims arising from offences committed before the new law entered into force.
