Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court issued a joint verdict combining sentences for the defendant across three separate proceedings involving drug offenses and corruption. The defendant argued for leniency based on prior rehabilitation, but the court noted his continued recidivism over nearly six years. Consequently, the court applied the asperatio principle to combine the punishments while acknowledging the diverse legal interests infringed.
