SummaryUnofficial

The appellant requested clarification of Judgment No. 662/2021, which had declared a Supreme Court judgment unconstitutional for increasing his sentence without reasons and returned the case for reconsideration. He argued that the Court should have made clear that the sentence had to be maintained or reduced, and raised further violations. The Court refused the request, since the applicant had understood the decision and clarification serves only to resolve obscurity or ambiguity, not to alter the judgment.
