The judgment below

Seoul High Court Decision 2016No2568 Decided January 20, 2017

Imposition of Judgment

April 13, 2017

Text

All appeals are dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of supplemental appellate briefs not timely filed).

1. As to Defendant A’s ground of appeal

According to the records, Defendant A appealed against the judgment of the first instance, and asserted only unfair sentencing as the grounds for appeal. In such a case, the allegation that the lower court erred by mistake of facts as to the intention of murder does not constitute a legitimate ground for appeal.

2. As to Defendant B’s ground of appeal

Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the evidence duly admitted by the lower court and the first instance court, it is justifiable to have determined that the lower court convicted Defendant B of both the charge of murder and the violation of the Child Welfare Act (child abuse) due to emotional abuse (excluding the part not guilty in the original trial) committed against Defendant B, on the grounds indicated in its reasoning. In so doing, contrary to what is alleged in the grounds of appeal, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against the logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on

Meanwhile, the argument that the court below erred in the misapprehension of legal principles as to the intention of joint processing in the judgment of the court below is not a legitimate ground for appeal, as alleged in the ground of appeal by Defendant B, who did not regard it as the ground for appeal or ex officio.

In addition, considering various circumstances, including Defendant B’s age, character and conduct, intelligence and environment, relationship with victims, motive, means and consequence of each of the instant crimes, and circumstances after the crime, the determination of the lower court’s punishment sentenced to 17 years imprisonment with prison labor for Defendant B cannot be deemed extremely unfair even when considering the circumstances asserted in the grounds of appeal.

3. Conclusion

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