The Court of Appeal dismissed the defense attorney's appeal against the first-instance judgment regarding the necessity of re-conducting the entire trial. The defense argued that the lower court erred by not ordering a full new trial, while the prosecution and the court found no such procedural violation. The appellate court ruled that the lower court's decision to proceed without a complete new trial was legally sound and did not infringe upon the defense's rights.
