Question juridique clé
Whether the appellate court arbitrarily treated the case as a simple standard case and limited compensation for chosen defense accordingly.
Solution extraite
No arbitrariness was shown; the case was not complex, and a lump-sum fee under the Zurich fee schedule was permissible.
Motifs extraits
Only two core acts had to be assessed, chiefly through the statements of the four participants. Credibility assessment of participant statements is routine in criminal proceedings; the additional investigative steps relied on by the defense were not directly tied to those core acts.
