For the reasons indicated in its holding, the lower court acquitted the Defendant on the charge of violating the Act on Registration of Credit Business, etc. and Protection of Finance Users due to flooding excess of the limitation rates set forth in [Attachment 1] Nos. 3 of the instant charges, and the statute of limitations has expired.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and records, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the completion of statute of limitations and acquittal judgment

The Prosecutor appealed the entire judgment of the court below, but the guilty part is not indicated in the petition of appeal or the appellate brief.

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