The Supreme Court dismissed the pharmacist's appeal against her conviction for professional misconduct, upholding the lower court's sentence. Although the legal qualification of the offense was not fully specified, the court found the defense rights were not violated because the defendant admitted to the factual elements and had full knowledge of the charges. The court ruled that the lack of specific legal citations did not impair the defense since the defendant did not contest the facts or submit evidence to verify them.
