Seoul High Court Decision 2012Nu23794 Decided December 21, 2012
May 9, 2013
The judgment of the court below is reversed.
The judgment of the first instance shall be revoked, and the case shall be dismissed. All costs of the lawsuit shall be borne by the defendant.
Judgment ex officio
If an administrative disposition is revoked, the disposition is no longer effective, and no lawsuit seeking revocation against a non-existent administrative disposition is unlawful as there is no benefit of lawsuit (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2011Du15343, Oct. 13, 201). The record reveals the fact that the disposition in this case was revoked ex officio on February 7, 2013, which is following the filing of the appeal in this case. Thus, the lawsuit in this case is about the revoked disposition, and thus, the benefit of lawsuit is invalid as it has no benefit of lawsuit. Therefore, the judgment of the court in this case is reversed, and the judgment of the first instance is revoked, and the lawsuit in this case is dismissed, and the total cost of the lawsuit is assessed against the defendant pursuant to Article 32 of the Administrative Litigation Act, and it is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
