Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe appellate court upheld the first-instance verdict convicting the defendant of damaging vegetation while acquitting him of malicious harassment. The defendant argued that witness testimony was unreliable and that the court violated procedural rules by ignoring factual doubts. The court rejected these claims, noting that doubts belong to the judge, not the parties, and that the defendant's actions lacked the malicious intent required for the harassment charge.
