The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

For the reasons indicated in its holding, the lower court determined guilty of the facts charged of this case and did not recognize mental and physical disorder.

The judgment below

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 more than ten years is imposed, an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing is allowed.

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.
