The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined.

Based on its stated reasoning, the lower court affirmed the first instance judgment that convicted the Defendant of the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (Fraud) and the fraud among the facts charged against the Defendant.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err in its judgment by misapprehending the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on causation between the crime of violating the Specific Economic Crimes Act (Fraud) and the act of deception and the act of disposal.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
