Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the prosecution's cross-appeal was admissible despite asking for 'at least 12 years' imprisonment.
Decisione estratta
The cross-appeal was inadmissible because the prosecution did not seek a change of the first-instance judgment and therefore lacked a legally protected interest.
Motivazione estratta
An appellant must request an amendment of the judgment. Saying that 12 years is still acceptable does not amount to seeking modification, even if the worsening prohibition no longer applied.
