Reasons

In a case where the appellate court dismissed the appeal on the grounds that the documents forged or altered documents or other articles were to be based on the fact-finding of the appellate court, and that the appellate court did not err in the misunderstanding of evidence, the grounds for retrial on the grounds that the judgment of conviction or alteration of such documents or other articles became final and conclusive or the judgment of a fine for negligence cannot be rendered for reasons other than defects in evidence shall fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the appellate court which rendered the judgment on the merits. According to the petition of retrial and the litigation materials, the appellate court rendered a judgment against the defendants to file a lawsuit for cancellation of ownership transfer registration with the Seoul Civil District Court (see Supreme Court Decision 71Da2418,5018, Jun. 2, 1972). The appellate court rendered a new judgment on the merits of which the appellate court dismissed the plaintiff's appeal (see Supreme Court Decision 72Na1765,1766, Jan. 31, 1975).
