Questão jurídica principal
Whether the new sentence of 4 years and 9 months violated sentencing law or was arbitrary.
Decisão extraída
The sentence was not excessively harsh and complied with sentencing law; the appeal was dismissed to that extent.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Supreme Court held that it had already found the earlier three-year sentence clearly too lenient in light of the objective and subjective circumstances. The lower court had to reassess culpability as well as remove unjustified mitigating factors, and it properly set an 4-year-6-month base sentence for serious bodily injury, increased by 3 months for brawl participation under asperation.
