Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellate court violated the right to be heard or acted arbitrarily by refusing a second psychiatric expert report and witness testimony.
Decisione estratta
No. The refusal was based on anticipatory assessment of evidence; the first expert report was considered thorough, clear, and free of contradictions, and the witness testimony was irrelevant to the decisive current situation.
Motivazione estratta
The Federal Supreme Court held that the right to evidence does not require taking evidence that cannot affect the court's conviction. A second expert report is not generally mandated, and the appellant did not show that the refusal was untenable.
