The Regional Court in G. convicted the defendant of illegally seizing timber worth 273.88 PLN from a forest management unit. The court rejected the defendant's claims that the wood was from his sister's land or purchased from a passerby, finding them entirely unverified by evidence. Consequently, the court ruled the defendant guilty under Article 120 of the Penal Code and sentenced him to a 100 PLN fine while exempting him from court fees due to low income.
