Busan High Court (Chowon) Decision 2019No344 decided June 24, 2020
Imposition of Judgment
October 29, 2020
Text
All appeals are dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
1. A prosecutor;
The lower court reversed the judgment of the first instance court that did not recognize the fact at the time of each of the instant crimes, and mitigated the Defendant from a mental disability. Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the relevant legal principles and evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence in violation of logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on
2. The defendant;
Examining various circumstances that form the conditions for sentencing, such as the Defendant’s age, character and conduct, environment, relationship with victims, motive, means and consequence of each of the instant crimes, and the circumstances after the crime, as indicated in the records, the sentencing of the lower court that sentenced the Defendant to imprisonment for life cannot be deemed extremely unfair, even in light of the circumstances asserted in the grounds of appeal.
The Defendant stated in the sign of the appellate brief that “the Defendant was in violation of the Constitution, laws, orders, or rules, or there is an error of law affecting the conclusion of the judgment by misunderstanding the legal principles,” and that “the Defendant committed the instant crime in the state of mental disorder or mental and physical disability (the state of mental disorder or mental disorder)” and did not state specific reasons therefor. Therefore, this assertion is not a legitimate ground of appeal.
3. Conclusion
The Defendant and the Prosecutor’s final appeal are all dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
