The defendant's appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
1. The gist of the grounds for appeal was that the Defendant went to the hospital due to the blurgic pain, and the head of the hospital was hospitalized by soliciting the hospital to be hospitalized, and then received the insurance money after receiving medical treatment by being hospitalized normally.
Nevertheless, the lower court found the Defendant guilty on the ground that it erred and convicted the Defendant.
