Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellate court violated the accused's right to be heard by basing the conviction for negligent homicide of F. on a different factual and temporal basis than the referral order.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The conviction relied on a broader planning-based negligence theory not contained in the referral order, and the accused was not heard on that new basis.
Motivazione estratta
The referral alleged negligence mainly after E. was already trapped; the appellate court instead used pre-accident planning and briefing failures as the basis for F.'s death. Because the accused could not foresee this broadened theory, the court had to warn him and hear him before deciding.
