Art. 55 Jurisdiction
1Where a canton is involved in a case of international mutual assistance, the public prosecutor has jurisdiction. 2During the main hearing, the courts may themselves submit requests for mutual assistance. 3The powers of the authorities responsible for the execution of sentences and measures are reserved. 4Where federal law assigns mutual assistance duties to a judicial authority, the objections authority has jurisdiction. 5Where a canton dealing with a request for mutual assistance from abroad carries out procedural acts in other cantons, the provisions on domestic mutual assistance apply. 6The cantons shall regulate any additional procedures. |
