The prosecutor's appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
1. The sentence (3 million won in penalty) declared by the court below on the gist of the grounds of appeal is deemed to be too unhutiled and unfair.
2. Where there is no change in the conditions of sentencing compared to the first instance court, and the sentencing of the first instance court does not deviate from the reasonable scope of discretion, it is reasonable to respect such a case (see Supreme Court Decision 2015Do3260, Jul. 23, 2015). The lower court, as indicated in its reasoning, determined the Defendant’s punishment by comprehensively taking into account the favorable circumstances and unfavorable circumstances for the Defendant.
The circumstances alleged by the prosecutor on the grounds of appeal are already considered in the sentencing process of the court below, and there is no new change in circumstances that could change the sentence of the court below in the trial.
When comprehensively taking into account the sentencing conditions, such as the Defendant’s environment, motive, means, and consequence of the crime, the circumstances after the crime, and the primary offender, as shown in the deliberation by the lower court and the party, the lower court’s sentence may not be deemed to have exceeded the reasonable scope of discretion, or to be unfair because it is too low.
3. According to the conclusion, the prosecutor’s appeal is dismissed in accordance with Article 364(4) of the Criminal Procedure Act, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
