Text
The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
1. On the first ground for appeal:
In light of the records, the court below's rejection of the facts of habitual larceny, which is the principal facts charged against the defendant, is justified and it cannot be found that there is any violation of the rules of evidence such as the theory of lawsuit, and therefore the arguments cannot be adopted.
2. On the second ground for appeal:
Since the crime of stolen and larceny cannot be regarded as a crime of the same or similar kind under Article 5 of the Social Protection Act is a case of a party member (see Supreme Court Decision 82Do383, Oct. 12, 1982). Therefore, the judgment below to the same purport is just and the judgment below is not justified, and there is no argument to criticize the judgment of the court below based on the dissenting opinion.
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
