The Court of Appeal partially modified the lower court's judgment regarding four defendants, specifically altering the legal qualification and sentencing basis for E.H., D.R., H.T., and B.J. The defense argued for a change in the legal characterization of their acts and the statutory basis for combined penalties and business bans. The court agreed to amend the legal qualification to include Article 4 of the Criminal Code using the version effective before July 1, 2015, and to restate the specific articles serving as the foundation for the imposed penalties and restrictions.
