All appeals by the Defendants are dismissed.
Reasons
1. Summary of grounds for appeal;
A. misunderstanding of facts and misunderstanding of legal principles 1) Defendants did not receive the payment from C in exchange for an unlawful solicitation that “I would be selected as an implementing company of the collection of earth and rocks in this case.” 2) Even if the money received from C was the payment for an illegal solicitation, the Defendants recognized the said money as the introduction cost, and thus, the intent of taking advantage of trust cannot be recognized.
B. The sentence imposed by the lower court on the Defendants (one year of imprisonment, one year of imprisonment, and one year and six months of imprisonment) is too unreasonable.
2. Determination
