Appeal if he is
convicted
Demurrer to Evidence without leave of
Court
If granted the case is dismissed and acquittal follows.
If denied, the accused waives his rights to present
evidence and submits the case for judgment.
When a demurrer is filed without leave of court, the
whole case is submitted for judgment on the basis of the
evidence for the prosecution as the accused is deemed to
have waived his rights to present evidence. At that
juncture, the court is called upon to decide the case,
including its civil aspect, unless the enforcement of the
civil liability by separate civil action has waived or
reserved. (Hun Hyung Park v. Eung Won Choi)
