MC Mong will be attending his final appeals hearing at the Supreme Court next month.
Back in January, after a long battle in the courts over the military draft evasion case, a verdict was reached for MC Mong. The court upheld the previous ruling reached back in April 2011, as they found MC Mong 'not-guilty' of violating Korea's military service law, for it couldn't be proven that his teeth was extracted for the purpose of evading his military draft. However, the court found him guilty on obstruction of justice charges for delaying his military enlistment without a valid reason. MC Mong was sentenced to a suspended six-month prison term, a year of probation, and 120 hours of community service.
Although MC Mong had expressed that he would not be following up with another appeal, and would accept the decision by the court. The prosecution had decided to appeal, for they could not accept MC Mong's 'not-guilty' verdict on the account of violating Korea's military service law. As a result, MC Mong will be heading back to the court in March for the final appeals hearing.
The case began back in October of 2010, and so far every verdict reached has deemed MC Mong 'not-guilty' on the charges of violating military service law, but guilty on the obstruction of justice charges.
