AI generated

The court convicted the defendant of drunk driving with a blood alcohol level of 1.02 mg/l and sentenced him to a fine, a three-year driving ban, and vehicle forfeiture. The prosecution argued for strict penalties due to the high alcohol concentration and direct intent, while the defense highlighted the defendant's stable family life and prior non-criminal record. The court balanced these factors by applying mandatory minimums for the ban and forfeiture while considering mitigating circumstances for the fine amount.
