Suspended Sentence for Violations of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, the Copyright Act, and Other Offenses

MEGA X distinguished and organized the facts of the case and the legal issues. We examined the standards for determining infringement of an information and communications network, violation of the Copyright Act, and interference with business, respectively, and submitted an opinion focusing on the principal factors the court should consider in its determination.

We also organized circumstances that could be considered in sentencing, including the client’s degree of involvement, the circumstances of the case, the scope of the harm, the client’s commitment to preventing recidivism, and the client’s social ties. Because multiple charges were brought together in this case, we explained the factors that could affect the outcome so that the court could consider them comprehensively.
