The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
The judgment below
Examining the reasoning in light of the record, it is justifiable for the court below to maintain the judgment of the court of first instance that acquitted the Defendant on the ground that the violation of the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act (including divulgence of business secrets) among the facts charged in the instant case constituted a case without proof of crime. Contrary to the allegations in the grounds of appeal, the court below did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
