The Supreme Court upheld a conviction for lost economic gain arising from a crime, despite the defendant having successfully challenged one specific charge at the Court of Appeal. The lower court's decision to dismiss that particular charge did not invalidate the conviction for the remaining proven offenses. Consequently, the court ruled that the loss of economic benefit could still be legally attributed to the defendant based on the established facts of the other charges.
