Reasons
Summary of Grounds for Appeal
In light of the fact-finding or legal principles, the lower court found the Defendant guilty of all the facts charged in the instant case, which erred by misapprehending the legal principles or misapprehending the relations between E (hereinafter “E”) and the head office, business types, roles and public relations of A and the Defendant, and the subject of each individual act indicated in the attached list of crimes.
The defendant does not have any fact of gathering A and/or B by using the customer of E in excess of his/her competitor.
After receiving an order from the customer, the Defendant was only the role of delivering the goods to the customer in accordance with the direction of the head office or A, and did not participate in the business of securing or supplying the goods ordered by the customer.
In addition, the fact that the defendant made a transaction by excluding E in accordance with A's instructions is limited to six times in the attached list of crimes Nos. 6, 7, 8, 16, 26, and 27, and the rest of 70 times was not known.
The Defendant retired from E on March 20, 2018, and thereafter there was no participation in the purchase of goods and the settlement of the price of the E-Institution after retirement.
The sentence of unfair sentencing (10 months of imprisonment) by the lower court is too unreasonable.
