Art. 55 Jurisdiction in general 20
1 Where a canton is involved in a case of international mutual assistance, the public prosecutor has jurisdiction. 2 During the main proceedings, the courts may themselves submit requests for mutual assistance. 3 The powers of the authorities responsible for the execution of sentences and measures are reserved. 4 Where federal law assigns mutual assistance duties to a judicial authority, the court for Article 393 appeals has jurisdiction. 5 Where 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. 6 The cantons shall regulate any additional procedures. 20 Amended by No I of the FA of 17 June 2022, in force since 1 Jan. 2024 (AS 2023 468; BBl 2019 6697). |
