Key legal question
Whether the conditions for granting a suspended sentence under Art. 42 StGB were met despite a prior conviction.
Extracted holding
The defendant failed to show particularly favorable circumstances and therefore was not entitled to a suspended sentence.
Extracted reasoning
The Court held that the prior conviction remained an important indicator against a favorable prognosis and that the defendant's arguments—acceptance of prior sanctions, family situation, work, remorse, and delict-free period—did not amount to a sufficiently positive change in circumstances.
