The court dismissed the prosecution's claim that failing to finalize an estate inventory within the statutory deadline constituted a punishable offense. The prosecution argued that the delay violated legal time requirements, while the defense contended that the obligation was merely procedural. The court ruled that since the inventory was eventually completed, the specific duty was fulfilled, rendering the initial delay non-punishable.
