Questione giuridica chiave
Whether first-instance criminal procedure costs had to be allocated separately after partial acquittal and conviction on distinct counts.
Decisione estratta
The lower court could not refuse any apportionment; the two charges were clearly separable and an equitable split of costs had to be reconsidered.
Motivazione estratta
The weapons and traffic-offense allegations concerned different acts and were suitable for separate investigation and adjudication. Even if precise allocation was difficult, the court had to distribute costs rather than charge the entire first-instance burden to the appellant.
