Summary of Judgment

Judgment of the lower court

Daejeon High Court Decision 2003Nu1279 delivered on January 26, 2006

Text

The appeal is dismissed. The costs of appeal are assessed against the plaintiff.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

1. As to the grounds of appeal Nos. 1 and 3

After finding the facts as stated in its holding, the court below held that the agreement of this case where the plaintiff requires the plaintiff to manage and operate the contact facilities is likely to be subject to the exercise of the right to set aside by the trustee in bankruptcy as stipulated in Article 64 subparagraph 1 of the former Bankruptcy Act (amended by Act No. 7428 of March 31, 2005, hereinafter the same shall apply), and that the agreement of this case constitutes an executory contract as stipulated in Article 50 of the former Bankruptcy Act and thus the right to set aside or terminate is granted to the trustee in bankruptcy. Upon examining the reasoning of the judgment below in light of the records, the judgment of the court below is just and acceptable, and there are no errors in the misapprehension of the rules of evidence, or in the misapprehension of legal principles as to the transfer of the right to manage and operate the contact, or in the misunderstanding of facts.

2. As to the grounds of appeal Nos. 2 and 4

In full view of the forms of relevant provisions, such as Article 8 of the former Tourism Promotion Act (amended by Act No. 6633, Jan. 26, 2002; hereinafter the same) and the forms, stay, language, etc., reports on succession to the status by transfer or acquisition of tourism business are lawful and effective transfer of business, and the administrative agency cannot refuse acceptance for any other reason unless there is a ground for disqualification under each subparagraph of Article 7(1) of the former Tourism Promotion Act to the transferee. Thus, the lower court erred by deeming the instant disposition as discretionary act.

However, in light of the records, the defendant issued the disposition of this case as to the plaintiff's report on succession to the status, which was based on the transfer and acquisition of the tourism business agreement of this case, to the effect that the defendant suspended the acceptance of the report until the dynamic situation where the effect of the agreement can be resolved according to the trustee's right to terminate or the right to set aside, and such defendant's measures are not deemed to be beyond the scope of the right to review which was held in acceptance of the report. Thus, the court below's conclusion that the disposition of this case is legitimate is just, and there is no violation of law such

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
