Note tin
1) The Defendant was detained on November 12, 2015 as the foregoing case, and the detention was revoked on November 11, 2016, prior to the final judgment (Evidence record 61, 111, 127, and 141). The prosecutor stated on November 11, 2016, which is the date of revocation of detention in the indictment, as the date of execution of a sentence. However, the execution of a sentence is based on the final judgment, and the execution of a sentence is not immediately executed. Thus, even if the detention of the Defendant was revoked, the date of revocation of detention cannot be deemed as the date of termination of imprisonment immediately. Accordingly, the Defendant’s term of imprisonment is calculated from February 3, 2017, which is the date of the final judgment, but no further sentence remains to be executed due to the inclusion of days of detention in the principal sentence, and thus, the judgment and execution of imprisonment is finalized as a result.
2) As seen earlier, the Defendant completed the execution of imprisonment with prison labor at the same time as the judgment had become final and conclusive on February 3, 2017. According to the records, the Defendant was found to have committed each of the crimes listed in paragraphs 1 and 2 of the Decision between 15:00 and 18:00 on February 3, 201, after becoming aware of the fact that the said judgment became final and conclusive by dismissal of the Supreme Court’s appeal through “the search by the Internet” on February 3, 2017, and then, the Defendant constitutes a repeated crime. Therefore, each of the crimes listed in paragraphs 1 and 2 of the Decision constitutes a case where the Defendant committed a crime within three years after having been sentenced to imprisonment without prison labor or heavier punishment
3) As indicated in Paragraph 1 of the holding, the Defendant purchased 3g and 2g of the penphones and purchased 0.03g of the penphones as indicated in Paragraph 2 of the judgment, and administered 0.03g of the penphones as indicated in Paragraph 2 of the judgment, and seized to an investigation agency the amount of 0.81g and marijuana 0.53g of the penphones that the Defendant purchased. While the sum of the number of the penphones administered in the quantity of the seized penphones and marijuana falls short of the sum of the penphones and marijuana purchased, the records show that the remainder of the penphones and marijuana except the penphones administered by the Defendant was entirely seized. As such, the Defendant sentenced the confiscation of the seized penphones and marijuana, and thus only the value of 0.03g of the penphones administered by the Defendant is collected.
4) In the case of a crime in a mutually competitive relationship, the sentencing criteria shall not be deemed to apply, but shall be see, as appropriate, the sentencing criteria as follows:
