Resumo Omnilex

The BGH held that the defendant's revision had been filed in time because the criminal judgment was effectively served on the duty counsel only on 2013-05-08. It therefore set aside the LG Essen order that had dismissed the revision as inadmissible. On the merits, however, the revision was unsuccessful: the court found no legal error prejudicing the defendant and dismissed the revision as unfounded. The defendant was ordered to pay the costs of the remedy.

Sumário Omnilex

§ 37 Abs. 1 StPO, § 345 Abs. 1 StPO; service of a criminal judgment on the duty counsel's partner does not constitute effective service to trigger the revision period. The deadline for filing the revision reasons begins only upon effective service on the authorized defense counsel. If the lower court dismisses the revision as inadmissible despite timely filing, that order must be set aside; the revision is then examined on the merits and is to be rejected under § 349 Abs. 2 StPO if no reversible error to the detriment of the accused is found.

Titelzeile

Revision in Strafsachen: Wirksamkeit der Zustellung eines Strafurteils an Sozius des Pflichtverteidigers

Tenor

  1. Der Beschluss des Landgerichts Essen vom 25. Juni 2013, mit dem es die Revision des Angeklagten als unzulässig verworfen hat, wird aufgehoben.

  2. Die Revision des Angeklagten gegen das Urteil des Landgerichts Essen vom 7. Februar 2013 wird als unbegründet verworfen.

  3. Der Beschwerdeführer hat die Kosten seines Rechtsmittels zu tragen.

Gründe

1 Auf den zulässigen Antrag des Angeklagten ist der Verwerfungsbeschluss des Landgerichts vom 25. Juni 2013 aufzuheben, weil eine wirksame Urteilszustellung an seinen Pflichtverteidiger erst am 8. Mai 2013 erfolgte (vgl. BGH, Beschluss vom 12. April 1988 - 4 StR 105/88, wistra 1988, 236) und die Revisionsbegründung demnach fristgerecht beim Landgericht einging.

2 Die Revision ist unbegründet im Sinne von § 349 Abs. 2 StPO, da die Nachprüfung des Urteils auf Grund der Revisionsrechtfertigung keinen Rechtsfehler zum Nachteil des Angeklagten ergeben hat.

Whether the revision against the LG Essen judgment was well-founded on the merits.
