The court convicted the defendant of the crime of non-payment of child support and sentenced him to three months of imprisonment. The prosecution alleged that the father failed to pay installments from August 2019 to February 2020, accumulating a debt of at least three payments, while the defense argued he was already serving a sentence and had high income. The court determined that despite mitigating factors like a guilty plea, the defendant's history of recidivism and failure to register for employment justified a custodial sentence to ensure the child's financial support.
