The court combined four separate prison sentences into a single joint verdict, ordering the defendant to serve the remaining term from December 2027. The defendant had already served time for some offenses and faced a suspended sentence for others, which was suspended upon the joint ruling. The court applied a mixed principle of partial absorption and cumulation, reducing the total term from over five years to approximately three years and three months based on the defendant's intentional nature and prior record.
