Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appellant was entitled to compensation under Art. 429 CPP after acquittal due to prescription.
Decisão extraída
No compensation was owed because his culpable failure to disclose the capital payment caused the proceedings.
Fundamentação extraída
Although acquitted for limitation reasons, his conduct clearly breached his duty to inform social services and was adequately causal to the criminal complaint; under Art. 429 CPP compensation is excluded in such circumstances.
