Key legal question
Whether the claim for economic loss was causally linked to the criminal proceedings under Art. 429(1)(b) CPP
Extracted holding
The claimed loss of earnings was not shown to result from necessary participation in the criminal proceedings, because the employment resignation predated the investigation.
Extracted reasoning
The decisive temporal sequence showed that the employment relationship had already been ended by the appellant before the criminal case began; any later dismissal could only have affected the remaining notice period.
