Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal appeal court could charge the full appeal costs to the defendant under Art. 428 CPP despite partial success.
Decisione estratta
Yes. He lost on the main request for immediate release and only obtained a minor reduction of the detention period, so he mostly failed and the modification was of little importance.
Motivazione estratta
Art. 428 para. 1 CPP allocates costs according to success and failure; under para. 2 let. b, a party may still bear costs when the favorable modification is minor. A ten-day reduction in a detention order, while leaving detention otherwise confirmed, was considered a slight change within the court's discretion.
