AI generatedThe Supreme Court voided the appeal judgment because the defendant, detained and unrepresented, was not properly served with the appeal decision. The court found that the defendant's inability to access medical records due to this procedural failure deprived him of his right to defense. Consequently, the appeal proceedings were declared invalid and the case was remanded for a new trial.
