2. The parties' assertion

A. The Defendant is the joint operator who operated the instant workplace with the Plaintiff E.

The Plaintiff supplied various fishery products at the instant place of business according to the supply request of E or the Defendant.

Therefore, the defendant is obligated to pay to the plaintiff 21,882,950 won for the unpaid goods and damages for delay.

B. The defendant divorced on February 4, 2005 with defendant E, and four children are the full-time supervisor who cares for four children.

The operator of the workplace of this case is only E, and the defendant has been able to temporarily work in a similar position as employee if necessary.

Therefore, the Defendant does not have the obligation to pay the price of the goods unpaid to the Plaintiff.

Comprehensively taking account of the overall purport of the arguments in Gap evidence 3, 4, and 5, Gap evidence 6-1, and Eul evidence 6-2, and Eul's testimony, the front of the instant business establishment has a signboard indicating "G" in the front of the instant business establishment. At the lower end of the signboard, the defendant's cell phone number J refers to the defendant's cell phone number ‘I', which is the E mobile phone number number.
