In spite of the fact that, the assessment of expenses is the absolute power of the Trial Court and is not
subjected to the supervision and control of the higher courts, but the basis upon which such assessment is
made, is necessarily subjected to the supervision and control of the higher courts - Cassation
decision/8/1972, Journal 1972, page 38-42. It is established and has been decided that, the defendant is a
prisoner and is not known to have income that exceeds poverty limits.
Based on the above, I believe, if my respected colleagues in the circuit agree, that the judgment shall be
cancelled, the papers of the case shall be referred back to the Trial Court to hear the defendant’s reply and
his income shall be reinvestigated and then, assessment evidence shall be heard in his presence.
