The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

For the reasons indicated in its reasoning, the lower court upheld the first instance judgment that found the Defendant guilty of robbery among the facts charged in the instant case.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence in violation of logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the establishment of robbery.

In addition, the argument that the judgment of the court below erred by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence due to incomplete deliberation on basic facts of sentencing constitutes the argument of unfair sentencing.

However, according to Article 383 subparagraph 4 of the Criminal Procedure Act, only in cases where death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment or imprisonment without prison labor for not less than ten years is imposed, an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing

In this case where a more minor sentence is imposed on the defendant, the argument that the punishment is too unreasonable is not a legitimate ground for appeal.

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