All appeals are dismissed.
The grounds of appeal are examined.
1. According to the records on the grounds of Defendant A’s appeal, Defendant A appealed against the judgment of the first instance, and only asserted the unfair sentencing on the grounds of appeal.
In such a case, the argument that the lower court erred in the misapprehension of the legal doctrine is not a legitimate ground for appeal.
In addition, pursuant to Article 383 subparagraph 4 of the Criminal Procedure Act, only in cases where death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment with or without prison labor for more than ten years is imposed, an appeal may be filed on the grounds of unfair sentencing. As such, in this case where a minor sentence is imposed against Defendant A, the foregoing assertion is not a legitimate ground for appeal.
2. Review of the record on the grounds of Defendant B’s appeal reveals that Defendant B appealed against the judgment of the first instance, and only asserted the illegality of sentencing on the grounds of appeal.
In such a case, the argument that the lower court erred in the misapprehension of the legal doctrine is not a legitimate ground for appeal.
3. Therefore, all appeals are dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
