1. Revocation of the first instance judgment.

The plaintiff's claim against the defendants is dismissed in entirety.

2. The total cost of the lawsuit.

Reasons

1. The Plaintiff’s subsequent appeal of this case by the Defendants prior to the merits is unlawful, since the appeal by the Defendants subsequent completion of this case exceeds the time limit for appeal as stipulated in the Civil Procedure Act. Therefore, the Plaintiff’s appeal is deemed unlawful.

If a copy of the complaint and the original copy of the judgment were served by service by public notice, barring any special circumstance, the defendant was not aware of the service of the judgment without negligence, and in such a case, the defendant is unable to comply with the peremptory period due to a cause not attributable to him/her and thus, he/she may file an appeal subsequent to subsequent completion within two weeks after such cause ceases to exist pursuant to

The fact that the Defendant filed an appeal subsequent to the subsequent completion of the instant case on July 3, 2014 is apparent or obvious to this court.

Meanwhile, in this case where the Defendants asserted that the first instance court judgment was served on June 27, 2014 by public notice and filed an appeal subsequent to the subsequent completion, the records of this case had already been perused or new before 14 days prior to the date of filing the appeal.
