Judgment of the lower court

Imposition of Judgment
August 18, 2017
Text
All appeals are dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of supplemental appellate briefs not timely filed).
Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the evidence duly admitted, it is justifiable for the lower court to have determined that the instant facts charged were guilty on the grounds stated in its reasoning. In so doing, it did not err by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the interpretation of Article 1(2) of the Criminal Act, the principle of legality, and the number of crimes, as otherwise alleged in the grounds of appeal.
Therefore, all appeals are dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
