Samsung Electronics Vice Chairman Lee Jae-yong has decided to accept the sentence of imprisonment by the Destruction and Return Trial on the 25th.
Attorney Lee In-jae, an attorney on Lee's side, said today, "We have decided not to humbly accept this judgment and not reappeal."
If the Special Inspection Team Park Young-soo does not reapply today, the sentence of Vice Chairman Lee will be confirmed.
Today is the last day of the court deadline for appeal.
Earlier, the first criminal division of the Seoul High Court (Judge Jung Joon-young, Song Seung-young, Kang Sang-wook) convicted some of the charges against Lee on the 18th and sentenced him to two years and six months in prison and imprisoned.
