Commentary on the Supreme Court of 22 November 2012

Abstract

In the case of complex criminal activities, treatment of medial contests crime from the point of view of the extinction of criminal liability for prescription, must start from the premise that the statute of limitations for the crime sought can only overlap, to prevail on that provided for the offense used to locate the end, extending, in the case of the former, has committed before it, in itself considered, had prescribed. But let it be understood, if and only if its author had also had a significant involvement in the implementation of the second offense, ie, that, in cases such as that provided for the execution of a criminal act back feed back, in order to prescription, in the area of one of the previously implicated in that sequence, there need to be imputed to any form of participation in it.
