Case Law
Extradition and precautionary measures: the appeal to the Supreme Court may not be personally signed by the sought person
✕
Summary
The appeal before the Court of Cassation is inadmissible because it was lodged through an application personally signed by the requested person, thus in breach of Article 613 of the Italian Code of Criminal Procedure, which provides — on pain of inadmissibility — that such appeal must be signed by a lawyer admitted to practice before the higher courts.
