Art. 38 Establishing an alternative place of jurisdiction
1 The public prosecutors may by mutual agreement establish a place of jurisdiction other than that provided for in Articles 31–37 if this is justified by the focus of the criminal activity, the personal circumstances of the accused or other just cause. 2 In order to safeguard the procedural rights of a party, after charges have been filed, the cantonal objections court may on application from that party or ex officio transfer the adjudication to another court of first instance in the same canton with material jurisdiction in derogation from the rules on place of jurisdiction in this Chapter. |
