The Haapsalu Court of First Instance dismissed the defendant's appeal against his conviction for theft. The prosecution alleged the defendant stole specific items, while the defense argued the evidence failed to prove the exact nature of the stolen goods. The court upheld the original judgment because the prosecution successfully demonstrated that the defendant took property belonging to another, satisfying the legal elements of the crime.
