The court convicted co-defendant J.J. of a data privacy crime while dismissing criminal proceedings against co-defendant B.P. based on the minor social harm caused by her actions. The court found B.P. merely executed a command from her superior without intent to misuse the data, warranting dismissal under Article 17 of the Criminal Procedure Code. Conversely, J.J. was held criminally liable for ordering the unauthorized copying of medical records, resulting in a conviction and a civil compensation order.
