Procedure details
Description
In criminal cases of minor importance, the public prosecutor's office can - except in the case of juveniles - apply to the criminal court judge to issue a summary penalty order instead of filing an indictment. The summary penalty order procedure is a procedure without a trial. However, if the defendant lodges an objection to a penalty order issued by the court, a main hearing will be scheduled. The court is not bound by the verdict contained in the penalty order in the subsequent judgment; the decision may therefore be less favorable for the accused.
Requirements
An appeal against the penalty order may be lodged in writing or on the record at the court that issued the penalty order within two weeks of service.
