Généré par l'IAThe Cassation Court annulled the lower court's judgment regarding specific charges of fraudulent bankruptcy and an aggravated circumstance of severe financial damage. The appellant argued that certain crimes were not formally contested by the prosecution, violating the principle of correlation between accusation and verdict, while the Court of Appeal deemed this irrelevant. The Court found the first argument valid for specific charges but rejected the claim regarding the aggravated circumstance due to insufficient evidence of the damage amount, resulting in a partial annulment with remittal for new proceedings.
