Appeals Court Overturns Conviction
November 18, 2025
A person was convicted in absentia to two years in prison for obtaining goods through false representations and served half of his sentence. Yesterday, the Court of Appeal found an error in the lower court's proceedings, noting that not all relevant factors were considered. As a result, the original verdict was overturned, and the individual was released. The appeals court emphasized the interest of justice in its decision. Ultimately, the appeal was granted, and the conviction was dismissed.
