The court convicted the defendant of drunk driving while serving a prior ban and sentenced him to ten months of imprisonment suspended for two years. The prosecution argued that the defendant's high blood alcohol level and prior conviction warranted a prison term exceeding the statutory minimum. The court agreed, imposing a lifetime driving ban and a fine, but suspended the prison sentence due to the defendant's caring family role and stable employment.
