Questão jurídica principal
Whether A. could be charged with part of the first-instance criminal costs under Art. 426(2) CPP after withdrawal of the complaint
Decisão extraída
The cost allocation based on A.'s illicit and culpable conduct was upheld in principle; the complaint withdrawal could be treated procedurally like a discontinuance.
Fundamentação extraída
A.'s taking money from the cash register and failing to record some sales was sufficiently established and constituted conduct contrary to law that caused the proceedings and the related costs. The appellate court did not act arbitrarily in attributing that cost share to her.
