The court dismissed the defendant's appeal regarding the combined criminal sentence imposed for multiple theft offenses. The defendant argued the sentence was too harsh and failed to meet their expectations, yet the court found no grounds to reduce it. The decision emphasized that the defendant's criminal lifestyle, including habitual theft and lack of restitution, necessitated a stricter penalty to ensure effective prevention.

Art. 572 k.p.k.; Art. 577 k.p.k.: A combined sentence is appropriate when multiple crimes warrant punishment, and the court must balance individual and general prevention, rejecting arguments that a lighter sentence would be more humane if it undermines the goal of preventing future offenses.
