Question juridique clé
Whether the conditions for exemption from punishment under Art. 53 CP were met.
Solution extraite
The defendant had not made sufficient efforts to repair the harm, and the public interest in punishment was not shown to be negligible; exemption from punishment was therefore refused.
Motifs extraits
The damage had not been fully repaired because civil-party attorney's fees remained outstanding. The repayment was made by a third party, not by the defendant, and only after more than two years. He took no concrete steps to compensate the attorney-fee loss, and the cantonal court did not abuse its discretion in denying Art. 53 CP relief.
