The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

According to Article 383 subparagraph 4 of the Criminal Procedure Act, only cases where death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment with or without prison labor for not less than ten years has been pronounced, an appeal may be filed on the ground that the judgment of the court below has influenced the judgment by grave mistake of facts.

Therefore, in this case where a more minor sentence was imposed on the defendant, the argument that the court below merely contests the finding of facts or points out the misunderstanding of legal principles on the premise of facts different from the facts recognized by the court below 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.
