1. Summary of grounds for appeal;
A. Defendant 2
(1) misunderstanding of facts
The Defendant did not instruct Co-Defendant 4 (Non-Party 1 in the judgment of the Supreme Court) to list the recruitment of election campaign workers or to manage election campaign workers and pay daily wages to Co-Defendant 4 (Non-Party 1 in the judgment of the court of first instance). In addition, the Defendant did not instruct or engage in the establishment of ○○ private placement, and even though the private placement does not constitute a similar institution under Article 89(1) of the Public Official Election Act, the court of first instance ordered and participated in the recruitment of election campaign workers, daily payment, and the establishment of ○ private placement, and committed an unlawful act that affected the judgment by
2) Unreasonable sentencing
The sentence of imprisonment (one year of imprisonment) imposed by the court below against the defendant is too unreasonable.
B. Defendant 16
Although the Defendant did not receive money from Co-Defendant 4 of the first instance court, the first instance court erred by misapprehending that the Defendant received money from Co-Defendant 4 of the first instance court, thereby affecting the conclusion of the judgment.
C. The remaining Defendants
Each sentence sentenced by the court below against the above defendants (the imprisonment of 2 years, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 17, and 18 shall be sentenced to a fine of 500,000 won and additional collection of 1.7 million won and 1.530,000 won and additional collection of 5 million won and 1.7 million won for the defendants 3 and 15 shall be sentenced to a fine of 5,000,000 won and additional collection of 1.7 million won and additional collection of 1.7 million won against the defendants 10,000 won and 1.7 million won for the defendants 11) shall be deemed unfair.
(d) A prosecutor;
1 Each sentence sentenced by the court below to Defendant 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 is deemed unfair because all of the punishments imposed by the court below are too unfasible.
2. Ex officio determination
The judgment of the court below was made ex officio prior to the determination on the above assertion. ① The prosecutor provided money and valuables to the defendant at the court of first instance 2012 high 14, and all of the facts stated in the indictment are " around September 23, 201," and " around September 20, 201" in paragraph (1) 6 and paragraph (9) 23, and " around September 20, 201," and "after September 20, 201," "after September 24, 201," and "after September 21, 201, the court below changed the legal principles on the money and valuables provided to the defendant 200, 201, 11, 39, 200, 200, 100, 200, 200, 30,000,000,000,000,000,00,000,00).
“5. Defendant 16
On October 10, 201, the Defendant received the request from Defendant 1, a co-defendant 2, who was the birth of Defendant 2, who was going to a candidate for △△△ Party, to act as a social member for the above Defendant 2, and at that time, Defendant 2, who was working as the head of the policy office, etc. in the election campaign at the above Defendant 2, was called as a social member during the election campaign period, and was to receive KRW 2.5 million in return for the election campaign.
Accordingly, on October 13, 2011, the Defendant received KRW 1.2 million from Co-Defendant 4 of the first instance trial in relation to an election campaign from the street in the Gyeyang-gun Development Eup around the morning.
3. Judgment on the misunderstanding of facts by Defendant 2 and 16
As seen above, the judgment of the court below is still subject to the judgment of the court of this case, even though there are reasons for ex officio reversal, since the above mistake of facts by the defendant 2 and 16 is still subject to examination.
A. As to Defendant 2’s assertion
The lower court also stated that the Defendant had the same reasoning as this part of the appeal, and rejected the above assertion under the title "1. Defendant 2" and "the first instance court's judgment", and compared the evidence duly adopted and examined by the lower court. On the other hand, it seems that Co-Defendant 4 knew that conversation between Defendant 1 and Defendant 4 was recorded at the time of meeting, and that Co-Defendant 4 did not appear to be consistent with that of Defendant 1's first instance court's first instance court's ruling regarding the amount to be paid to Co-Defendant 4, but it is not easy for Co-Defendant 1 to accurately memory Defendant 4 with the first instance court's first instance court's ruling regarding the election campaign after the lapse of several months in light of empirical rule, and that Co-Defendant 1's statement was not related to Co-Defendant 4's election campaign at the first instance court's first instance court's first instance court's first instance court's position and the second instance court's second instance court's second instance court's first instance court's second instance court's second instance court's second instance ruling ruling.
B. As to Defendant 16’s assertion
Co-defendant 1 and 4 duly adopted the judgment of the court below and stated that “Co-defendant 1 and Co-defendant 4 provided 10,000 won for 13 days to the society at the time of the investigation, and the rest of Defendant 1 was known to have been made.” At the time, Co-defendant 1 and Co-defendant 4 stated that “No. 1 and Co-defendant 4 provided 4 with the same money to Co-defendant 1 for 10,000,000 won for 10,000 won for 10,000 won for 10,000 won for 4,000,000 won for 4,000 won for 6,000 won for 10,000 won for 4,000 won for 6,000,000 won for 1,000 won for 4,000 won for 1,000 won for 6,000 won for 1,000 won for 1.
4. Conclusion
Therefore, the judgment of the court below on the above ground of ex officio reversal is reversed in accordance with Article 364(2) of the Criminal Procedure Act without omitting the determination on the remaining Defendants and the prosecutor's respective arguments on unfair sentencing except Defendant 16, and it is again decided as follows.

1. Defendant 1
The crime of this case is very poor in light of the fact that the money and valuables provided to 38 members of the election campaign to provide a total of 63 million won in connection with the election campaign is a large amount, which is planned and organized, and further, the crime of this case is likely to be criticized in that it was caused by illegal election campaigns that occurred in the course of the previous election for the head of the Gun, which occurred in the course of the new election for the head of the Gun.
