The prosecution argued that the high blood alcohol level and the defendant's income made leniency inappropriate, while the defense claimed prior non-criminality and workplace approval. The court rejected the request for conditional dismissal due to the significant alcohol content and the specific duty of the defendant as a professional soldier.
