Accordingly, Defendant A raised an objection to the purport that the service performance human resources are different from the actual ones in order to escape P, a successful bidder at the end of June, 2015, and suggested that “P will pay F penalty instead of the penalty to be paid if the successful bidder renounces the successful bidder, or if there is no penalty, 90 million won if there is no penalty.” Accordingly, Defendant A thought that there is a possibility that the successful bidder may be cancelled from F due to the actual difference between the human resources to perform the service as Defendant A’s assertion, Defendant A accepted Defendant A’s proposal and prepared a written waiver of the successful bidder, and Defendant A submitted the written waiver of the successful bidder, Defendant A submitted the written waiver of the successful bidder, and Defendant A revoked the successful bid of P around June 30, 2015.

Judgment on Defendant A, B, C, and Defense Counsel’s argument (as to the crime No. 1 of this case in the market)

1. Summary of the assertion

Although Defendants were duly entitled to receive the dividend payment of the victim company as a shareholder of the victim company, the method of payment was merely received in the form of wages in the name of another person in order to avoid imposing the tax on dividends in accordance with the advice of the director of the tax accountant office. Therefore, the receipt of each of the money stated in paragraph (1) of the criminal facts stated in the judgment of the Defendants does not constitute embezzlement of another person’s property, the victim does not suffer substantial loss, and there was no intention of embezzlement or illegal acquisition.

2. Determination

The Defendants’ receipt of funds from the victim company in the form of registering false employees in the victim company as criminal facts constitutes occupational embezzlement, thereby causing damage to the victim company, and the Defendants’ intent and intent of unlawful acquisition may also be sufficiently recognized. The specific grounds are as follows. In order to distribute profits to shareholders, profits available for dividends after deducting the capital stock and the capital reserve accumulated up to the period for the settlement of accounts, and the resolution of the general meeting of shareholders should be adopted, and the requirements and procedures prescribed in Articles 462 and 464 of the Commercial Act should be complied with, such as the number of shares held by each shareholder.

However, according to the evidence adopted by the court and examined by this court, the Defendants did not pass a resolution of the general meeting of shareholders to receive money as above, and did not pay dividends in proportion to the number of shares to other shareholders, such as U, Y, X, X-W, and V. Meanwhile, even according to the Defendants’ assertion, in cases where the Defendants and other shareholders pay the total amount of money received as bonuses, settlement dividends, and wages in the name of others, the Defendants, A, and B received at least an amount equivalent to the number of shares held by them out of the total profits as bonus, wages in the name of others, etc., and Defendant C, W, and V received money in short of the requirements and procedures under the Commercial Act. It is difficult to view the amount of money received by the Defendants as a fraudulent wage under the pretext of payment. In addition, the shareholders’ claim for dividend is merely an abstract right until the shareholders’ final and conclusive dividend becomes final and conclusive upon approval at the general meeting of shareholders (see Supreme Court Decision 200Da3729, May 28, 2010).

Even if the Defendants were in an abstract position to receive dividends from the victim company as a shareholder of the victim company, as long as there was no resolution of dividend in accordance with the requirements and procedures under the Commercial Act, the Defendants cannot be deemed to have held a specific and conclusive right to receive dividends from the victim company. Nevertheless, if the Defendants actually received the funds from the victim company as false benefits based on such abstract position, such act should be deemed to have caused damage

The Defendants, as a major shareholder of the victim company, representative director, family member, person, etc. as the head of the management headquarters, falsely registered the victim company as an employee or auditor of the company, received money as his wage, and paid money by pretending to purchase a household in the victim company or the office construction, and received money, and embezzled the funds of the victim company by receiving them back. In light of the fact that the Defendants committed each embezzlement for a considerable period of time using their status and trust relationship, and that the embezzled money totaled to KRW 820,761,176, etc., up to KRW 820. In addition, the Defendants received special benefits that are strictly prohibited by the Insurance Business Act for equity among the policyholders in relation to the conclusion of the victim company’s liability insurance contract, and received special benefits to the conclusion of the victim company’s liability insurance contract with respect to the G service tender conducted by the F, and practically, the victim company interfered with the fairness of the tender by interfering with the tender by paying the price to the competitor as a false competitor even though it independently participated in the tender.

[Recommendation and Scope of Recommendation] Basic Field, Imprisonment from 6 months to 1 years

3) Scope of recommending punishment based on the standards for handling multiple crimes: Imprisonment for two to five years (five years of imprisonment with prison labor which is the upper limit of the scope of punishment for basic crimes plus six months of imprisonment with prison labor which is 1/2 of the upper limit of the scope of punishment for concurrent crimes). Determination of sentence shall be made.

The Defendant, as a shareholder of the Victim Company and the head of the Operational Headquarters, embezzled the funds of the Victim Company by falsely registering his/her family, person, etc. as an employee of the Victim Company and receiving money under his/her wage. In light of the fact that the Defendant committed the instant crime for a considerable period of time using his/her position and trust relationship, and that the amount embezzled with A and B exceeds KRW 664,807,756, etc., the crime is not good. Furthermore, in relation to the G service tender conducted by F, the Defendant was involved in the instant crime, such as interfering with the tender conducted by F in a manner that the victimized Company independently participates in the tender, even though he/she participated in the tender, thereby obstructing H from participating in the tender conducted by F. This is disadvantageous to the Defendant.

However, with respect to the crime of violation of the Act on the Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (Embezzlement), the defendant and Gap and Eul are in a position to properly distribute profits by complying with the requirements and procedures under the Commercial Act as equity right holders holding a total of 65% of the shares of the victim company. The amount actually acquired and disposed by the defendant is less than 106,030,566 won, and the amount actually acquired and disposed by the defendant is less than 106,030,566 won, and the fact that the defendant has no record of such crime is the first offender who has no record of such crime shall be considered as favorable to the defendant.

However, considering the fact that the defendant recognized the crime of this case and reflects the fact that the defendant was the first offender who has no record of the crime, etc., the circumstances favorable to the defendant should be considered, and other circumstances, such as the defendant's age, character and conduct, environment, and motive, means and methods of the crime, etc., the punishment as set forth in the order shall be
