The defendant shall be innocent.

Reasons

1. On July 25, 2005, the Defendant: (a) around 16:25, the charge is a restricted area in which it is impossible to operate more than 4.2 meters high from the vicinity of the Cheongbuk-gu Office located at the 3.7 kilometer of the Cheongbuk-gu motorways; (b) however, C, an employee of the Defendant, was able to load a steel plate on D freight vehicles and drive it in excess of 0.08 meters high.

2. The prosecutor of the judgment applied Articles 86, 83(1)2, and 54(1) of the former Road Act (amended by Act No. 7832, Dec. 30, 2005; hereinafter the same) to the facts charged in the instant case, and applied Articles 86, 83(1)2, and 54(1) of the former Road Act, and the court issued a summary order subject to a fine of KRW 500,000 on September 27, 2005 and finalized around that time.

On October 28, 2010, the Constitutional Court rendered a decision that "where an agent, employee, or other servant of a corporation commits an offence under Article 83 (1) 2 in connection with the business of the corporation, a fine under the relevant Article shall also be imposed on the corporation" (see Constitutional Court Order 2010Hun-Ga38, Oct. 28, 2010) that applied to this case, the provision of the Act retroactively loses its effect pursuant to the proviso of Article 47 (2) of the Constitutional Court Act.

On the other hand, where the penal law or the legal provision becomes retroactively null and void due to the decision of unconstitutionality, the case which was prosecuted by applying the pertinent provisions shall be deemed to be a crime.

(see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 2004Do9037, Apr. 15, 2005; 91Do2825, May 8, 1992). Thus, the facts charged in this case constitutes a case where the facts charged in this case is not a crime, and thus, the defendant is acquitted under the former part of Article 325 of the Criminal Procedure Act.
