The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

The judgment below

Examining the evidence duly adopted by the court of first instance, the court below’s determination that the court below found the Defendant guilty of attempted rape among the facts charged of this case on the grounds stated in its reasoning is justifiable. In so doing, the court below did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence in violation of logical and empirical rules or by misapprehending the legal principles on attempted rape.

In addition, pursuant 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 has been imposed, an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing is allowed. Thus, in this case where a more minor sentence has been imposed on the defendant, the argument that the defendant’s punishment is too unreasonable

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