1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

As to the portion of additional collection of mistake of facts (defendant A), the account book No. 4, which was seized, was prepared by a person, other than the defendant, regardless of the crime of this case, and the judgment of the court below which calculated the additional collection charge based on the above account book,

The sentence imposed by the lower court (Defendant A: one year of imprisonment, two years of probation, probation, community service order 320 hours, confiscation, additional collection, Defendant B: one year of imprisonment, two years of suspended execution, two years of probation, probation, and community service order) is too unreasonable.

A. Whether the defendant A is subject to confiscation or collection, or the recognition of the amount of collection can be recognized by free certification without requiring strict certification.

Meanwhile, criminal proceeds subject to confiscation or collection under the Act on Regulation and Punishment of Criminal Proceeds Concealment refer to the property generated by a criminal act or its remuneration, which is acquired with a causal relationship with the criminal act, and the property itself acquired with a causal relationship.
