Questão jurídica principal
Whether the criminal appeal was admissible despite lacking conclusions and reasons
Decisão extraída
No. A notice of appeal without reasons had to be supplemented by a motivated brief within ten days after service of the challenged judgment; none was filed.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 425 and 431(1) CPP, the court cannot enter into an unmotivated appeal and must reject it as manifestly inadmissible.
