The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against a lower court's judgment regarding the legality of a detention period. The appellant argued that the custodial measure exceeded the maximum duration permitted by law, while the prosecution contended the extension was legally justified by evolving circumstances. The court ruled that the lower court correctly applied the statutory time limits, finding no error in the assessment of the detention's duration.
