Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal court violated the right to be heard by reducing billed hours without explanation when fixing compensation under Art. 429(1)(a) CPP.
Decisão extraída
Yes. When departing from a detailed fee list, the court had to briefly explain which items it considered unjustified so the party could challenge the decision effectively.
Fundamentação extraída
The cantonal court cut almost 7 hours from a 14h42 list of operations without giving reasons, aside from a vague reference to two phone conferences. This insufficient reasoning breached the right to be heard and required remittal.
