Attorney D

Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the evidence duly admitted by the lower court, the lower court’s judgment that found the Defendant guilty of the facts charged in the instant case on the grounds stated in its reasoning is justifiable, and contrary to what is alleged in the grounds of appeal, there were no errors by misapprehending the legal principles on election campaign under Article 256 (3) 1 of the Public Official Election Act, “in order to affect the election” under Article 90(1) of the Public Official Election Act, “other advertisements”, “other advertisements except as provided by this Act,” and “justifiable acts.”

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