The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

For the reasons indicated in its holding, the lower court upheld the first instance judgment that convicted of the instant facts charged.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the establishment and intent of the crime of forging official documents and the crime of uttering of forged official documents, burden of proof, and principle of trial on evidence.

Meanwhile, the argument that the lower court erred by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the relation to acceptance of crimes is not a legitimate ground of appeal, which is alleged in the ground of appeal by the Defendant, or by the lower court’s ex officio determination.

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