Text
The appeal shall be dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are determined.
Examining the reasoning of the original judgment in light of the evidence duly adopted by the first instance court and the first instance court, the lower court’s determination that the facts of the preliminary prosecution of this case were recognized as guilty on the grounds as indicated in its judgment is justifiable. The lower court did not err by misapprehending the bounds of the free evaluation of evidence by violating the logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal principles on bribe in the crime of receiving or receiving a bribe, intention, identity of the facts charged, or changes in indictment, or by failing to comply with the grounds.
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
