정보통신망이용촉진및정보보호등에관한법률위반(명예훼손)

Text

The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

The lower court found the Defendant guilty of the instant facts charged on the grounds indicated in its reasoning.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err in its judgment by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence inconsistent with logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the burden of proving “false facts” as prescribed by Article 70(2) of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, Etc.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
