Judgment of the lower court
Seoul High Court Decision 64Na1403 delivered on February 24, 1965, Seoul High Court Decision 64Na1403 delivered on February 24, 1965
Text
We reverse the original judgment.
The case is remanded to Seoul High Court.
Reasons
We examine the Defendant’s attorney’s grounds of appeal.
According to the provisions of Article 19(1) of the Criminal Compensation Act, there is no appeal against the decision of compensation.
However, Article 102 of the Constitution provides that the Supreme Court shall finally examine so-called unconstitutionality and illegality, and on the other hand, Article 415 of the Criminal Procedure Act that applies mutatis mutandis under Article 23 of the Criminal Compensation Act may immediately file an appeal with the Supreme Court against the ruling of the appellate court or the High Court on the ground that there is a violation of the Constitution or regulations affecting the conclusion of the judgment. Thus, it is reasonable to interpret that an immediate appeal may be filed with the Supreme Court under Article 19(1) of the Criminal Compensation Act, and that the decision of the lower court on the compensation of the plaintiff cannot be deemed as null and void on the ground that the above decision of the Supreme Court on the compensation of the plaintiff is not a final and conclusive judgment of the Supreme Court on the ground that the above decision of the first instance court on the compensation of the plaintiff is not a valid one under Article 415 of the Criminal Procedure Act, on the other hand, since the decision of the lower court on the compensation of the plaintiff cannot be seen as a final and conclusive judgment of the Supreme Court.
