An acquitted defendant, who was represented by court-appointed counsel, is generally entitled to full compensation under Article 71(1) in conjunction with Article 59(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, meaning that the usual one-quarter deduction for legal aid pursuant to Article 26(1) of the Fee Ordinance is not to be applied, regardless of the prior appointment of defense counsel.
