However, the policyholder, etc., who is the above exemption from liability as above should bear the burden of proof. The plaintiff's intentional or gross negligence should bear the burden of proof. The plaintiff's assertion that the fire occurred in the factory of this case around April 18:18, 207. The plaintiff's assertion that the fire occurred in the factory of this case around 18:18, 207.

C) In this case, this Court sentenced Defendant 2 to six months on August 28, 2009, on the ground that this Court notified Defendant 2 of the aforementioned false facts and attempted to obtain insurance money by submitting a false statement, etc.

2) Determination

A) The purport of the terms and conditions of the fire insurance clauses of this case is to stipulate the causes of the insurance accident, situation, degree of damages, etc. to determine liability for compensation under the insurance contract, to determine compensation amount, etc. However, it is highly necessary to require the insured to provide accurate information on them to policyholders or the insured (hereinafter “insured”). Accordingly, in cases where the insured claims excessive insurance money in a fraudulent manner contrary to the principle of trust and good faith, such as forging documents or manipulating evidence against such request, the insured should lose its right to claim insurance money (see Supreme Court Decision 2004Da2027, 20234, Nov. 23, 2006). However, it is reasonable to interpret that the insurer is exempt from liability only if it violates the terms and conditions by strictly interpreting the terms and conditions of the insurance contract of this case, in light of the social utility and economic function of the victim’s insurance, as well as the economic significance of the insurance claim of this case, and thus, it is reasonable to reasonably interpret the contents of the insurance claim of this case to the extent that it loses its function.

B) In the instant case, the following circumstances revealed by the aforementioned legal principles and facts, i.e., ① Defendant 1’s actual amount of damages on the installation machinery excluding the building and public organizations due to the fire of this case 81,426,150 won [3,000 won + 6,500,000 won + + 4,000,000 won + 2,400,000 + 00,000 + 80,00,000 won + 00,000,000 won + 0,000,000 won + 0,000,00 won + 14,726,150 (1,68,000,000,000 won + 20,000,000 won +60,00 won +60,00 won +60,00 won of the total amount of damages on the inventory equipment excluding the actual purchase price).

C) Therefore, Defendant 1, the insured of the instant insurance contract, intentionally stated that it was different from the facts in the documents concerning the claim for insurance money. Thus, as stipulated in the terms and conditions of the instant insurance contract, Defendant 1 lost its right to claim insurance regarding the installation machinery and inventory assets of this case, and on the other hand, the fact that the portion of the instant public organization with respect to the amount of damages caused by the instant fire is not clearly disputed by the Plaintiff Company. Thus, the Plaintiff Company is obliged to pay Defendant 1 the amount of damages of the said public organization and damages for delay.

5. As to the claim for payment of KRW 100 million as to the portion of the factory building of this case

A. The nature of the instant insurance contract

Defendant 1 is the insured of the instant insurance contract. Under the instant insurance terms and conditions, the insurance company provides that the insured shall compensate for direct damage caused by fire, fire-fighting damage, escape damage, etc. The Defendants leased the instant factory building from Nonparty 1, the owner of the instant plant, as acknowledged earlier. According to the above facts, it is clear that the instant insurance contract has the nature of the non-life insurance as a kind of fire insurance. Unless otherwise stipulated, such fire insurance cannot be deemed as having the nature of the liability insurance that the insured shall compensate for the damage caused by the insured’s liability to compensate for damage to another person, the owner of the relevant object. In this case, whether the insurance contract is for himself/herself, the content of the insurance contract and the terms and conditions that the parties consider as the content of the insurance contract, the process and process of concluding the insurance contract, the practice of the insurance company, etc. (see Supreme Court Decision 95Da14800, May 30, 1997, etc.).

In light of the fact that the building of this case was known to both parties that it does not belong to the owner of the policyholder at the time of conclusion of the insurance contract of this case, and the contents of the above terms and conditions, it is reasonable to view the part concerning the building of this case as the policyholder of this case and the lessee of this case as the insurance contract of this case

B. Determination

On the other hand, if an insured event occurred in a contract for another person under Article 12 (2) of the insurance clause of this case, the fact that the policyholder can claim insurance money to the company to the extent that it does not harm the other person's rights is acknowledged as above when the policyholder compensates the other person for the loss caused by the insured event. Thus, there is no assertion or proof as to the fact that the defendant 1, the policyholder, was compensated for the loss caused by the fire of this case to the non-party 1, the owner of the building of this case. Thus, the claim for insurance money payment against the plaintiff company of this case against the defendant 1 is not acknowledged (see Supreme Court Decision 2006Da4330 delivered on January 12, 207).

According to Article 724(1) of the Commercial Act, in the case of liability insurance, the insurer is unable to pay all or part of the insured amount to the insured before the third party receives the compensation for the damages caused by an accident attributable to the insured (see Supreme Court Decision 94Da28093, Sept. 26, 1995) by deeming the part concerning the building of this case as liability insurance for Defendant 1, the insured, the insured, as the part concerning the building of this case, is deemed as liability insurance for the owner of the building of this case, and even if Defendant 1, the insured, as the insured, was liable for damages caused by a fire, the insurer cannot pay the whole or part of the insured amount to the insured (see Supreme Court Decision 94Da28093, Sept. 26, 1995). Thus, since there was no assertion or proof that Defendant 1 paid damages to the owner of this case due to the fire of this case or that there was an obligation to pay insurance money against the third party owner by the method set forth in the Commercial Act or the insurance clause.

6. Conclusion

Therefore, there is no obligation to pay insurance money under the insurance contract of this case against defendant 2 of the plaintiff company. The plaintiff company is obligated to pay damages for delay calculated at the rate of 20% per annum under the Commercial Act from May 18, 2007 to September 18, 2009, which is the date when the plaintiff company rendered a reasonable judgment, as to the existence and scope of the obligation to pay insurance money from May 18, 2007 to the date when the claim for insurance money was received, and from June 8, 2007, from May 18, 2007 to the date when the claim for insurance money was received, the plaintiff company is obligated to pay damages for delay calculated at the rate of 20% per annum under the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings from the next day to the date of full payment (the defendant 1 claimed damages for delay from April 1, 207, which is the date when the claim for insurance money was received). However, there is no obligation to pay insurance money exceeding the above insurance money under the insurance contract of this case against the plaintiff.

Therefore, the plaintiff company's claim against the defendant 2 is justified, and the plaintiff company's main claim against the defendant 1 and the counterclaim by the defendant 1 are accepted within the scope of the above recognition, and the remainder is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
