Legislator summary

The court dismissed the request to issue a joint sentence for the defendant, who had previously been sentenced for multiple crimes. The prosecution argued for combining all pending penalties, but the court found that the chronological order of the judgments violated the conditions for a joint sentence under current law. Consequently, the proceedings to issue a joint sentence were terminated because the first judgment predated the later crimes, making a unified sentence legally impossible.

Art. 85 § 1, 2 k.k.; Art. 572 k.p.k.: A joint sentence cannot be issued if the chronological order of the judgments violates the conditions for combination, specifically when earlier judgments were rendered before later crimes were committed.
