정보통신망이용촉진및정보보호등에관한법률위반(명예훼손)

Text

The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

For reasons indicated in its reasoning, the lower court upheld the first instance judgment convicting the facts charged of this case.

Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the relevant legal doctrine and evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err in its judgment by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on false facts, intent, and purpose of defamation.

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