A defendant shall be punished by imprisonment for six months.
Reasons

According to the records of this case, the lower court: (a) served a writ of summons, etc. of the Defendant on the method of serving public notice pursuant to Article 23 of the Act on Special Cases Concerning Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings and served a trial in the absence of the Defendant; (b) served on May 17, 2017, and sentenced the Defendant to six months of imprisonment; and (c) filed a petition for recovery of the right to appeal on May 3, 2018, recognizing that the Defendant was arrested in the course of formally finalized judgment by execution of punishment by the lower court; and (c) the lower court rendered a decision

As such, the appellate court should proceed with a new litigation procedure against the defendant and make a new decision according to the result of a new trial.
Therefore, the judgment of the court below can no longer be maintained.
3. Therefore, the judgment of the court below is reversed in accordance with Article 364 (2) of the Criminal Procedure Act without examining the defendant's unfair argument of sentencing, and the judgment of the court below is reversed, and it is again decided as follows after pleading.
