Court convicts drunk driver for DUI, applies prior conviction erasure, and imposes fine and license ban.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court found the defendant guilty of driving a motor vehicle while intoxicated and sentenced him to a fine of 40 daily rates and a three-year driving ban. The prosecution alleged a prior conviction under Article 178a § 4 of the Criminal Code, but the court determined that the defendant had fulfilled his obligations in the earlier case, resulting in the erasure of that prior conviction. Consequently, the court applied the standard sentencing provisions for drunk driving rather than the aggravated penalty for recidivism.
