Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily reduced recoverable defense costs under Art. 317 CPP/TI
Extracted holding
The reduction was not arbitrary; the cantonal court retained broad discretion to award only reasonable and necessary defense costs.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 317 CPP/TI did not bar reductions. The court could assess the time spent against the complexity of the case and reimburse only a proper, reasonable handling of the mandate.
