About this book

Luca Schoop examines the power of Swiss public prosecutors to decide civil claims within summary criminal proceedings. The German-language study addresses the provision introduced in Article 353(2) of the Swiss Criminal Procedure Code in January 2024.

The analysis asks when a prosecutor may or must decide a claim, what counts as proceeding without further evidence, and how factual and legal clarity affect the decision. An empirical section complements the legal analysis. The complete original dissertation considers the positions of the parties, practical challenges and remaining legislative gaps.
