그런데, 그 특별감사신청서에는『... 다) 공소외 1의 복잡한 이성관계, 공소외 1은 이사장으로 취임하기 이전부터 공소외 4라는 사업가와 적절하지 못한 관계에 있었으며, 이사장으로 취임한 이후에는 위 공소외 4의 친구인 공소외 5라는 사업가와의 부적절한 관계로 인하여 동인의 처로부터 공개적인 비난을 받은 바 있습니다. 그 후에도 공소외 1은 공소외 2 대학교의 전 직원 공소외 6과 부적절한 관계에 있었는데 이는 공소외 1이 2008.경 공소외 3을 만나며 일신됩니다. 위 공소외 4, 공소외 5 및 공소외 6은 모두 각 혼인관계에 있던 자들이었으므로 이들과 부적절한 관계를 갖는 것은 형법상 간통죄에 해당되는 것입니다. 다. 공소외 3의 총장 선임과 그 후의 불법·부당 행위 1) 공소외 3의 총장 선임, 공소외 1은 2010. 9. ◎◎대 교수로 재직하던 공소외 3을, 기존의 총장후보 선출제도 마저 바꾸며, 공소외 2 대학교의 새로운 총장으로 선임합니다. 이때에도 공소외 1은 공소외 3과 부적절한 관계를 맺습니다 ............ 바. 공소외 1의 불법·부당행위 1) 이성과의 부적절한 관계........공소외 1의 각종 비위 행위는 이러한 동녀의 복잡한 남녀관계에 주로 기인합니다 2) 공소외 4와의 부적절한 관계에 기인한 공소외 2 대학교 교수의 부당임용, 공소외 1은 공소외 4와 부적절한 관계를 유지하는 대가로서 동인으로부터 무려 약 11억 8,400만원을 받았는데 그 후 동인과의 재판을 거치며 법원으로부터 위 금원 중 3억 3,400만 원을 공소외 4에게 반환하라는 판결을 받게 됩니다. 4) 공소외 6과의 부적절한 관계에 기인한 ◆◆건설에 대한 일감몰아주기 및 공소외 2 대학교 병원 지정화환업체의 선정 등 공소외 1은 2005. 동녀와의 잦은 골프회동과 술자리 등으로 소문난 공소외 6(공소외 1 이사장 취임 당시의 노조위원장)를 공소외 2 대학교 체육부장서리로 승진 발령하였는데..... 5) 공소외 3과의 부적절한 관계에 기인한 총장 임명과 비호행위, 공소외 1이 2010. 기존의 총장후보 선출제도 마저 바꾸며 자신과 부적절한 관계에 있던 공소외 3을 공소외 2 대학교의 새로운 총장으로 선임한 것, 그 후 공소외 3의 수많은 학내 비리행위에 대하여 직·간접적으로 관여하였다는 것, 공소외 3의 비리행위를 적극 비호한 것..... 』라고 기재되어 있었다.

(b) Violation of Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information;

As such, Nonindicted 1 and Nonindicted 3, by securing the details of the use of the corporate card used by the victim and Nonindicted 3, obtained a detailed statement of approval, with respect to the use of the corporate card used by the victim and Nonindicted 3.

공소외 1은 ○○카드로부터 2010. 1.경 ‘학교법인 공소외 2 대학교’ 명의로 발급받은 법인카드[카드번호 :(카드번호 1 생략)]를 사용하였고, 공소외 2 대학교 총장인 공소외 3은 2010. 9.경 ‘공소외 2 대학교’ 명의로 발급받은 법인카드[카드번호 : (카드번호 2 생략)]를 사용하였다. ○○카드로부터 법인카드 사용내역서를 발급받기 위해서는 ○○카드나 ▼▼은행을 방문하여 법인 인감증명서, 사업자등록증, 대리인 신분증 등을 첨부하여 법인 대표이사 혹은 대표자의 인감도장을 날인한 신청서를 작성, 제출하여 그 신청인이 법인카드 사용내역서를 발급받을 수 있는 정당한 권한자임을 입증하여야만 한다.

The card name holder of the corporate card used by Nonindicted 1 is the financial department of the school juristic person’s secretariat. The card name holder used by Nonindicted 3 is the card name holder of Nonindicted 1 and the management authority is the school juristic person’s secretariat. The card name holder of the corporate card used by Nonindicted 3 was Nonindicted 3 and the management authority was the general team of Nonindicted 2 University, and there was no authority to issue a letter of use of the corporate card used by Nonindicted 1 and Nonindicted 3.

그런데, ○○카드나 ▼▼은행을 방문하지 않고 ○○카드 콜센터 ARS 상담원을 통하면, 법인카드번호와 사업자등록번호만 알고 있으면 법인카드 사용내역서와 승인내역서를 발급받을 수 있다는 점에 착안하여 불상의 방법으로 공소외 1과 공소외 3이 사용하는 법인카드의 카드번호를 알아냈다.

B. Violation of Act on Real Name Financial Transactions and Guarantee

No person working for a financial company, etc. may provide or divulge information or data about the details of the relevant financial transaction to any third person, and no person may request a person working for the financial company, etc. to provide such information or data, unless the card holder's written request or consent is obtained.

(1) A crime committed on April 23, 2013

① Use of Nonindicted Party 1’s corporate card (credit card number: No. 1 omitted)

Nevertheless, at around 13:45 on April 23, 2013, the Defendant calls at the above trade union office to the ○○ Card △△ △△ Call Center, and requested Nonindicted 15, a corporate card counselor, to send a corporate card usage statement for three years from January 2010 to March 2013, 2013, stating that “The Defendant is the full-time officer of the trade union and is not the person who used the corporate card or the management authority as seen above, and the Defendant did not have the right to receive the corporate card usage statement, etc. because he did not obtain the consent or approval of the card holder.”

Nonindicted 15 believed the Defendant to be the legitimate management authority to receive the notice of the use of the said corporate card immediately, and sent the details of use from January 1, 2010 to February 28, 2013 of the said corporate card to “(e-mail address 3 omitted)” as the Defendant’s personal e-mail (e-mail address 3 omitted), which is the Defendant’s personal e-mail designated by the Defendant, by e-mail, and the Defendant received the information of financial transaction by transmission of

② A detailed statement of use of Nonindicted 3’s corporate card (credit card number: No. 2 omitted)

On April 23, 2013, at around 15:14, the Defendant was provided with the content of use from September 1, 2010 to May 31, 2012, of the corporate card used by Nonindicted 3 by Nonindicted 16, a corporation card counselor, using the e-mail of the Defendant in the same manner as the above paragraph (1).

However, inasmuch as Nonindicted 17’s information prior to October 8, 2012, which was six months prior to March 2013, 2012, was issued only by submitting a separate documentary evidence, the Defendant received financial transaction information by being transmitted to the Defendant’s e-mail only after October 8, 2012, where it is not necessary to submit a separate document.

(c) Violation of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act;

No electronic financial transaction information shall be perused or provided by fraudulent or other illegal means.

Nevertheless, the Defendant was provided with the detailed statement of use and the detailed statement of approval of the corporate card as if the Defendant was the legitimate user or management authority of the corporate card used by Nonindicted Party 1 and Nonindicted Party 3, at the time and place of the foregoing paragraph.

Accordingly, the Defendant perused or received financial transaction information by falsity or other illegal means.

1. Violation of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection;

(a) Submission of an application for special audit to an educational finance book;

Defendant 2 and Defendant 3 submitted to the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, on March 27, 2013, an application for special audit to the effect that Defendant 1 and the representative of the non-indicted 8’s children’s meeting constituted the Emergency Countermeasure Committee, together with Nonindicted 12, the victim Nonindicted 1’s revocation of approval and the special audit of the school juristic person.

그 특별감사신청서에는『... 다) 공소외 1의 복잡한 이성관계, 공소외 1은 이사장으로 취임하기 이전부터 공소외 4라는 사업가와 적절하지 못한 관계에 있었으며, 이사장으로 취임한 이후에는 위 공소외 4의 친구인 공소외 5라는 사업가와의 부적절한 관계로 인하여 동인의 처로부터 공개적인 비난을 받은 바 있습니다. 그 후에도 공소외 1은 공소외 2 대학교의 전 직원 공소외 6과 부적절한 관계에 있었는데 이는 공소외 1이 2008.경 공소외 3을 만나며 일신됩니다. 위 공소외 4, 공소외 5 및 공소외 6은 모두 각 혼인관계에 있던 자들이었으므로 이들과 부적절한 관계를 갖는 것은 형법상 간통죄에 해당되는 것입니다. 다. 공소외 3의 총장 선임과 그 후의 불법·부당 행위 1) 공소외 3의 총장 선임, 공소외 1은 2010. 9. ◎◎대 교수로 재직하던 공소외 3을, 기존의 총장후보 선출제도 마저 바꾸며, 공소외 2 대학교의 새로운 총장으로 선임합니다. 이때에도 공소외 1은 공소외 3과 부적절한 관계를 맺습니다 ............ 바. 공소외 1의 불법·부당행위 1) 이성과의 부적절한 관계........공소외 1의 각종 비위 행위는 이러한 동녀의 복잡한 남녀관계에 주로 기인합니다 2) 공소외 4와의 부적절한 관계에 기인한 공소외 2 대학교 교수의 부당임용, 공소외 1은 공소외 4와 부적절한 관계를 유지하는 대가로서 동인으로부터 무려 약 11억 8,400만원을 받았는데 그 후 동인과의 재판을 거치며 법원으로부터 위 금원 중 3억 3,400만 원을 공소외 4에게 반환하라는 판결을 받게 됩니다. 4) 공소외 6과의 부적절한 관계에 기인한 ◆◆건설에 대한 일감몰아주기 및 공소외 2 대학교 병원 지정화환업체의 선정 등 공소외 1은 2005. 동녀와의 잦은 골프회동과 술자리 등으로 소문난 공소외 6(공소외 1 이사장 취임 당시의 노조위원장)를 공소외 2 대학교 체육부장서리로 승진 발령하였는데.....』라고 기재되어 있었다.

However, the victim did not have any improper relationship with the above non-indicted 4, non-indicted 5, non-indicted 6, and non-indicted 4 in a marital relationship, or there was no communication with the above non-indicted 4 in a marital relationship. Moreover, in order to revitalize the medical branch of the non-indicted 2 University, it was inappropriate that the non-indicted 3, who was the professor of the research branch of the kniven University, was appointed as the president of the non-indicted 3 as the president of the non-indicted 3. In addition, the non-indicted 6 was not ordered as the head of the sports division since it was inappropriate for the victim to be issued as the director of the sports division through the normal personnel procedure, such as the proposal from the president of the non-indicted 2 University after the completion of the Trade union Chairperson.

(b) Violation of the Act on Promotion of Utilization of Information and Communications Network;

On March 28, 2013, at least 14:55, the Defendants sent e-mail to approximately 900 persons, composed of the members of the Non-Indicted 2 University Faculty Council, using the official account of the University Council (“No. 4 omitted”)

Accordingly, the Defendants, in collusion with the above Defendants 1, revealed publicly false facts through information and communications networks for the purpose of slandering them, thereby impairing the honor of the victims.

Grounds of guilt and Punishment

○ The portion of defamation due to transmission of the application for special audit (defendants): there is no objective material to acknowledge the victim’s inhumanity relationship, and the Defendants also indicated by using a decent expression without any separate confirmation procedure that is merely a written indictment, and thus constitutes a statement of false facts. Moreover, the publicly alleged facts constitute a case belonging to the private sector because the victims have established a long-term inhumanity relationship with several male persons. The Defendants do not seem to have been necessary for forming public opinion in the school for the normalization of the school foundation. In light of the fact that the Defendants do not appear to be necessary for the formation, etc. of public opinion in the school for the normalization of the school foundation, the president of the school foundation who is female victim is deemed to have damaged the serious moral and moral reputation of the said expression, and the part which contributed

○ 금융거래정보 제공요구 및 취득 부분(피고인 1): ① 실지명의에 의한 금융거래를 실시하고 그 비밀을 보장하여 금융거래의 정상화를 목적으로 하고 이를 위하여 명의인의 동의 없이는 금융거래정보 등을 타인에게 제공하거나 누설하는 등의 행위를 금지하는 금융실명거래및비밀보장에관한법률의 입법목적이나 규정취지, 여신전문금융회사도 위 법에서 규정하는 금융회사에 해당하는 점 등에 비추어 보면 이 사건 법인카드의 거래정보는 위 법이 정하는 금융거래정보에 해당하고, 공소외 2 대학교의 노조위원장인 피고인 1에게 학교법인의 법인카드 사용내역을 제공받을 권한이 있다고 보기 어렵다(예산·결산에 있어서는 자문기구인 대학◀◀원회의 부의장이라 하여도 마찬가지이다). ② 피고인 1이 법인카드의 사용내역을 제공받을 권한이 없음에도 이를 제대로 알리지 아니한 채 제도의 허점을 이용하여 거래정보를 제공받은 이상 수단이나 방법의 상당성을 갖추었다고 할 수 없고, 또한 법인카드의 사용내역을 제공받는 방법이 위 방법 이외의 다른 수단이나 방법이 없었다고도 볼 수 없으므로 정당행위에 해당하지 않는다.

○ Even if the normalization of a school is clear, the Defendants had caused serious personal and moral defamation to the victim by falsely pointing out the influorial relationship of a private woman, which is not related thereto, and Defendant 1 acquired financial transaction information that ought to be kept confidential in an unlawful manner in order to accomplish his/her own assertion. The Defendants’ act cannot be deemed as an industrial action that is not problematic for the purpose, and even if it appears that the damage would be considerable to the victim, the Defendants still did not reflect his/her wrongness while criticisming the victim, and thus, the Defendants need to bear strict liability corresponding to their criminal liability.

However, the defendants appear to have committed the crime of this case for the normalization of school rather than for their personal interests, and the defendants 1 and 2 are first offenders, and the defendants 3 have no record of punishment except for a fine once, and the sentencing conditions indicated in the records such as the age, character, conduct and environment of the defendants shall be determined as ordered in consideration of the sentencing conditions indicated in the records.

Parts of innocence

1. Summary of the facts charged

In the file "Public Disclosure of the Additional Profit for Non-Indicted 1 Chairperson", "3. Cru. 3. The unjust expenditure of the corporate card of the chief director - Non-Indicted 1 chief executive officer spent 3.2 million won with the corporate card for two and six months from September 2010 to March 2013, which used a total of 7,000,000 won including personal golf - In addition to the expenditure of excessive golf expenses, it was additionally confirmed that in addition to the expenditure of excessive golf expenses, it purchased high-priced goods at the department store and duty-free shop of the overseas travel site, or purchased golf goods, it was further confirmed that the school juristic person would pay the amount (the detailed interest confirmed through the payment of the corporate card in accordance with the details of the corporate card)."

Accordingly, the Defendants, in collusion with the above Defendants 1, damaged the reputation of the victim by openly pointing out false facts.

2. Determination

A. The following facts can be acknowledged according to the evidence duly adopted and examined by the court.

(1) After Non-Indicted 3 resigned from the president, the Non-Indicted 3 appointed Non-Indicted 3 as the president of Non-Indicted 2’s university, and Non-Indicted 3 held office as president, the Non-Indicted 3 was also subject to a campaign demanding the victim to retire from the office of president on the ground that the corporate embezzlement, etc. committed by Non-Indicted 3 while in office as president was committed under the victim’s secret protection and multiple profit-making businesses led and implemented by the victim also significantly aggravated the finance of Non-Indicted 2’s university.

(2) While the Emergency Countermeasure Committee submitted an application for special audit as stated in the facts constituting an offense in the educational finance book in the course of the victim's withdrawal movement, it received the specifications and approval statement of the use of the corporate card used by the victim and Nonindicted 3 in the same manner as the facts constituting an offense in order to verify whether various public funds of Nonindicted 2 University have been properly executed, as the educational finance book did not take any particular measures.

(3) 피고인 1을 비롯한 비상대책위원회는 입수된 위 사용내역서 및 승인내역서를 분석하여 그 분석된 결과 등을 토대로 위 공소사실 기재와 같이 특별감사신청서(2차)를 교육재정부에 제출하고, 이어서 피해자가 법인카드 등을 부당하게 사용하였다는 등의 의혹(1. ♥♥♥♥ 등 임대상가 특혜 제공 의혹, 2. 법인 공금 횡령 적발과 동시에 법인 핵심관계자 2명 돌연 퇴사, 3. 이사장의 법인카드 부당지출 의혹)을 제기하는 공소사실 기재의 ‘공소외 1 이사장 추가 비리 의혹’, ‘범비대위의 정의로운 노력과 활동사항을 말씀드립니다(최종)’라는 파일과 유인물 등을 공소외 2 대학교 교수 및 직원들에게 이메일로 송부하거나 배포하였다.

(4) After the submission of the above application for special audit (Second), the education re-government conducted an audit of the school juristic person, and pointed out the problems in the management and administration of the property of the school juristic person including the victim of the audit results, and issued a corrective order. Upon the request of the school juristic person according to the corrective order, the victim deposited the amount of KRW 13 million in relation to the use of the corporate card for which its use is unknown and KRW 100 million in relation to overseas business trips

(5) Separately, the victim was charged with the facts charged that he arbitrarily used the amount of KRW 130 million for personal purposes, such as personal travel expenses, and embezzled the amount of KRW 130,000,000,000 for out-of-the-counter equipment to Seoul Eastern District Court 2014 High Court 239, and acquired the corporate card for a private purpose, and is currently pending trial.

B. In full view of the circumstances and judgments as seen above, the evidence submitted by the prosecutor alone is insufficient to acknowledge that the Defendants had damaged the reputation of the victim by transmitting or distributing the files and printed materials with a false fact for the purpose of slandering the Defendants, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge otherwise.

(1) In determining whether the facts are false, it should be determined whether the part that is inconsistent with objective facts is important by examining the purport of the overall contents of the alleged facts in question. This article points out individual use of the victim’s corporate card, such as excessive golf expenses, travel, purchase of department store products, etc. The overall purpose of this article is to point out the problems arising from the use of corporate card based on the result of analyzing the specifications of the use of corporate card. The victim appears to have used corporate card for personal purposes, such as golf expenses or travels with the corporate card (the purchase by Nonparty 3), which is not less than 70 million won but less than 70 million won, and the victim appears to have purchased the department store or duty-free shop product with the corporate card. The victim returned part of the money to the school juristic person and criminal trial for the victim is under way, while the victim’s improper relation is discussed in the victim’s corporate card use, it is difficult to readily conclude that the defendants made a false statement in light of the fact that there is no statement about the above file or incentive.

(2) The victim, as the chief director of the school juristic person, has to be criticized for its operation, and the Defendants raised issues with the suspicion of using the victim’s unfair corporate card in the course of demanding the withdrawal of the victim’s school juristic person’s operation. This is often a part of contributing to the formation of public opinion in the school or the public debate on public interest issues. Moreover, the whole purport of the text sent or distributed is to urge the victim to leave the school by using the victim’s unfair corporate card. In full view of these circumstances, it is difficult to deem that there was a purpose of slandering the Defendants.

3. Conclusion

Thus, this part of the facts charged constitutes a case where there is no proof of crime, and thus, a judgment of innocence is rendered pursuant to the latter part of Article 325 of the Criminal Procedure Act, and the summary of the judgment of innocence on Defendant 3 pursuant to Article 58(2) of

Judge Lee Jin-hee
