BGH Clarifies Controversial Questions on § 52 StPO: When Does the Right to Refuse Testimony End?

TL;DR AI-generated The Federal Court of Justice (BGH) ruled that the right to refuse testimony for close relatives in criminal proceedings ends when the proceedings against the accused are definitively discontinued and prosecution as a felony is excluded. This also applies if the discontinuation was made under conditions according to § 153a StPO.
