Text

The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

As to the Grounds of Appeal:

As in this case, the judgment of the court below, which dismissed the appeal on the ground that only the defendant appealed the judgment of the court of first instance on the ground of unfair sentencing, on the ground that it is groundless, cannot be considered as the grounds for appeal on the grounds of misconception of facts against the rules of evidence or violation of Acts and subordinate statutes (see Supreme Court Decision 87Do1561, Dec. 8, 1987). In this case where the defendant is sentenced to imprisonment with prison labor for less than 10 years and a fine for less than 10 years, there is no legitimate grounds

All of the arguments are without merit, and this appeal is dismissed, and it is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
