Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the sentence of 15 months' imprisonment was excessively severe under Art. 63 CP
Extrahierter Entscheid
The sentence was not so severe as to amount to an abuse of discretion; the appellate court was correct on this point.
Extrahierte Begründung
The gravity of the breach of trust, the amount and duration of the fraud, and the defendant's lack of prior convictions, confession and remorse justified the punishment.
