The appeal court partially overturned the first-instance judgment by correcting the classification of statutory interest on compensation damages. The appellant argued that the lower court's assessment of evidence violated procedural rules under Article 7 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, while the court focused on a specific error in labeling interest as 'statutory' rather than 'statutory interest for delay.' The court ruled that the first instance failed to correctly identify the nature of the interest owed, necessitating a modification of the award to include interest from the date the judgment became final until payment.
