2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful
A. The plaintiff's assertion
The disposition of this case to the effect that since the full repayment was made in accordance with the purport of the relevant lawsuit, the indemnity for the entire period of possession should be calculated, and that the remainder, except the repayment, should be calculated, and the remainder should be paid, including the period of possession in the relevant lawsuit, and the interest thereon should be paid.
(b) Related statutes;
State Property Act
Article 72 (Collection of Indemnities)
(1) The head of a central government agency, etc. shall collect from a person occupying any State property without permission an indemnity equivalent to 120/100 of the usage fees or loan charges of the State property, as prescribed by Presidential Decree.
Article 73 (Collection of Overdue Charges, etc.)
(1) The head of a central government agency, etc. may collect overdue charges, if usage fees for State property, surcharges, loan charges, proceeds from sale, exchange funds, and indemnities (excluding any interest on delay in collection or in installments) fail to be paid by the payment deadline, as prescribed by Presidential Decree. In such cases, the period for which overdue charges are imposed shall not exceed 60 months from the payment deadline.
(2) Where usage fees for State property, surcharges, loan charges, indemnities, and late payment charges under paragraph (1) have not been paid by the payment deadline, the head of a central government agency, etc. may collect them by applying mutatis mutandis the provisions of Article 23 of the National Tax Collection Act and the same Act concerning the disposition on default according to the following methods:
C. Determination
In full view of the following circumstances revealed in accordance with the relevant laws and the purport of the entire pleadings, it is reasonable to view that an indemnity for a period of illegal occupation equivalent to the amount of reimbursement that the Plaintiff received based on the relevant lawsuit during the previous imposition disposition has ceased to have been effective and the partial liability for payment has ceased to exist. As such, the instant disposition that urged the payment, including the amount of indemnity
1) It is possible to impose indemnity under the State Properties Act on a person who has occupied any State property without permission and seek a return of unjust enrichment equivalent to rent or rent under the Civil Act instead of collecting indemnity in accordance with Article 23 of the National Tax Collection Act and the disposition on default under the same Act.
2) In light of the fact that the State Property Act requires the State to collect indemnity unilaterally by adding the amount equivalent to 20 percent of the loan charges or usage fees to the illegal occupant of the State property where the permission for loan, use or profit-making is granted, in addition to the amount equivalent to the loan charges or usage fees to be paid to the illegal occupant of the State property, within the punitive meaning, and the State Property Act requires the State to collect indemnity under the National Tax Collection Act at the time of default on the payment of indemnity, etc., the disposition imposing indemnity to the illegal occupant of the State Property cannot be deemed as a juristic act under private law conducted by the State as the private economic entity, and this is an administrative disposition subject to administrative litigation on the ground that the management agency has performed in a superior position with the public power (see Supreme Court Decision 87Nu
However, in light of the following circumstances: (a) the Defendant filed a lawsuit without due process of collection pursuant to relevant Acts and subordinate statutes; (b) the method of calculating indemnity and unjust enrichment equivalent to indemnity or usage fees under the Civil Act is different; and (c) the same period of occupation and unjust enrichment and indemnity may be the same, or the unjust enrichment may be higher than indemnity, in a lawsuit claiming restitution of unjust enrichment, it is reasonable to deem that the Defendant’s measure, such as filing a lawsuit for return of unjust enrichment under the Civil Act, instead of the aforementioned collection procedure, against the person liable for reimbursement; and (c) the Defendant’s disposition imposing indemnity for the period of occupation for which the reimbursement of unjust enrichment was claimed, upon payment
3) It is reasonable to deem that a person entitled to indemnities has trusted that his liability to pay the partial amount of indemnities has been terminated by filing a lawsuit claiming unjust enrichment under the Civil Act, and paying unjust enrichment for the period of possession. Therefore, there is sufficient room to deem that the instant disposition contravenes the principle of trust protection (see Supreme Court Decision 98Du19070, Mar. 9, 199, etc.).
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case that has been changed in exchange at the trial of the party is justified and it is so decided as per Disposition.
