The court convicted the defendant of fraud and sentenced him to one year of imprisonment suspended for three years, along with a civil compensation of 100,000 PLN. The prosecution alleged the defendant defrauded a company by selling a leased excavator as his own property, misleading the buyer into believing it was free of legal encumbrances. The court found the evidence sufficient to establish guilt and deemed the suspended sentence appropriate given the defendant's remorse and financial situation, while ordering partial restitution for the victim's loss.
