Seoul High Court Decision 2018Do3528, 2018 Jeonno208 (Joint) Decided June 13, 2019

Judgment

August 29, 2019

The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined.

Examining various circumstances that form the conditions for sentencing as shown in the records, such as the Defendant’s age, character and conduct, environment, relationship with the victim, motive, means and consequence of each of the instant crimes, and the circumstances after the crime, it cannot be deemed that the lower court’s maintenance of the first instance judgment that sentenced the Defendant to 30 years of imprisonment, etc. is extremely unfair.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
