출판물에의한명예훼손등

Text

The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

The lower court found the Defendant guilty of the instant charges on the grounds indicated in its reasoning.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and evidence duly admitted, 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 “influence” in the crime of defamation by publications, and of violation of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, Etc. (Defamation).

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