The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
The judgment below
Examining the reasoning in light of the evidence duly admitted by the court below, the court below is just in finding the defendant guilty of the facts charged in this case on the grounds as stated in its reasoning. Contrary to the allegations in the grounds of appeal, the court below did not err by misapprehending the legal principles on the legality of arrest and the admissibility of illegally collected evidence.
In addition, even if the record is examined, the defendant's defense was infringed in the trial procedure of the court below as alleged in the grounds of appeal.
No reasonable ground is found.
Meanwhile, under Article 383 subparag. 4 of the Criminal Procedure Act, an appeal may be filed only for a case on which death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment with or without prison labor for more than ten years has been imposed. Thus, in the instant case where a more minor sentence has been imposed against the Defendant, the argument that the Defendant’s punishment is too unreasonable is not a legitimate ground for appeal.
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
