Seoul Southern District Court Decision 2008 High Court Decision 4108 Decided February 4, 2009
May 6, 2009
The judgment of the court below is reversed.
The sentence of punishment shall be suspended for the defendant.
1. Summary of grounds for appeal;
A. misunderstanding of facts or misunderstanding of legal principles: Defendant’s act of installing burgic machinery in the freight partitions of the instant vehicle does not constitute alteration of vehicle structure.
B. Unreasonable sentencing: The sentence of the court below is too heavy.
2. Determination
A. misunderstanding of facts or misapprehension of legal principles
Article 34 of the Motor Vehicle Management Act provides that the owner of a motor vehicle shall obtain approval from the competent authority when he/she intends to change the structure and devices of the motor vehicle, which are prescribed by Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs, and Article 8 (1) 3 and (2) 10 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act and Article 55 (1) of the Enforcement Rule of the same Act apply thereto.
Comprehensively taking account of the evidence duly adopted and examined by the court below, the defendant is found to have installed 5 parts of the 1 ton of the vehicle of this case using the 1st ton of the truck of this case (3 cm and 2 cm long) with the 5 parts of the viser machinery (15cm x 130cm x 40cm x 40cm) and installed a cover of the vehicle at a higher location than 15cm than the machinery. If the facts are the same, the defendant's act of installing the above viser machinery of this case constitutes a change of the total weight of the vehicle exceeding the easy limit of the viser, goods loading equipment, etc., and therefore the above argument by the defendant is without merit.
B. The assertion of unfair sentencing
In full view of all the sentencing conditions shown in the pleadings of the instant case, including the Defendant’s age, character and conduct, family environment, motive and circumstance leading to the instant crime, and circumstances before and after the instant crime, the Defendant’s punishment (the fine of KRW 200,000) sentenced by the lower court is deemed to be too unreasonable, and thus, is deemed to be unreasonable.
3. Conclusion
Thus, since the appeal by the defendant is well-grounded, the judgment of the court below is reversed in accordance with Article 364 (6) of the Criminal Procedure Act, and it is again decided as follows.
