Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court merged three separate criminal judgments against the defendant into a single combined sentence of two years and two months imprisonment. The defendant argued for specific sentencing calculations, but the court found the mixed application of absorption and cumulation principles justified given the intentional nature of the crimes against family. Consequently, the court ordered the execution of the combined prison term while dismissing the remaining liberty restriction penalty.
