The Romanian High Court of Cassation and Justice (Criminal Section) dismissed as unfounded the convicted appellant's appeal against the Court of Appeal's decision, thereby upholding the conviction and the prior appellate ruling; the appellant was ordered to pay 1,200,000 lei in judicial costs (with 200,000 lei for court-appointed defense advanced from the Justice Ministry's fund), and the decision was final. The case was a criminal appeal challenging a conviction, with the appellant contesting the merits of the lower courts' rulings. Legally, the dismissal was based on Article 385¹⁵(1)(b) of the Romanian Criminal Procedure Code, which requires rejecting an unfounded appeal, and Article 192(2) of the same code, which imposes litigation costs on the losing party.
