The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
The judgment below
Examining the evidence duly adopted by the first instance court, the lower court’s determination that the facts charged in this case were guilty on the grounds stated in its reasoning is justifiable, and contrary to what is alleged in the grounds of appeal, there were no errors of violating logical and empirical rules and exceeding the bounds of free evaluation of evidence, and there were no errors of misapprehending the legal principles regarding the Defendant’s mental and physical disorder.
In addition, the argument that the judgment of the court below is erroneous in the incomplete deliberation or omission of judgment on the sentencing grounds is an unfair argument for sentencing.
However, pursuant to Article 383 subparagraph 4 of the Criminal Procedure Act, only in cases where death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment with or without prison labor for more than ten years has been imposed, an appeal is permitted on the grounds of unfair sentencing. Thus, in this case where a more minor sentence has been imposed against the defendant, the argument that the amount of punishment is unfair is not a legitimate ground for appeal
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
