Prosecutor

Ulsan District Court Decision 2013No1098 Decided June 27, 2014

April 15, 2016

The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined.

Examining the reasoning of the judgment below in light of the records, it is justifiable for the court below to maintain the judgment of the court of first instance which acquitted the Defendant of the facts charged (excluding the portion guilty) of this case on the grounds that there is no evidence of crime. In so doing, it did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules

On the other hand, the prosecutor appealed on the remaining convictions, but did not submit the grounds of appeal.

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