Summary
The possibility and necessity of using the written procedure to adjudicate a criminal case in court of appeal became self-evident in COVID-19 emergency. The new legal and factual reality and the convenience which it brings, naturally brings forth the question about maintaining the possibility of judicial review of criminal proceedings in writing, in particular on the court of appeal, in cases not covered by the Criminal Procedure Law of Republic of Latvia. This raises the question whether, within the framework of fair proceedings, an appellate court may adjudicate a case in written procedure, if the court proceedings of the first instance had resulted in an acquittal.
