The appellate court partially modified the first-instance judgment by reducing the monetary fine imposed on the defendant to 3000 PLN. The defendant argued for a lower penalty, but the court upheld the conviction under Article 86 § 2 of the Criminal Code for theft. Consequently, the fine was adjusted downward while the remainder of the original sentence remained in force.
