The judgment below
Incheon District Court Decision 2013No3165 Decided September 21, 2017
Imposition of Judgment
July 12, 2018
Text
All appeals are dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
The lower court found Defendant A guilty of all the facts charged (excluding the part on acquittal in the grounds of appeal) and acquitted Defendant B and Defendant CO on the grounds that there was no evidence to prove the facts charged. Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the 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 relevant legal doctrine, without exhaust all necessary deliberations, contrary to what is alleged in the grounds of appeal. The grounds of appeal by Defendant A and the Prosecutor are dismissed in its entirety without merit.
