2. We examine whether the appeal against the defendant A is lawful ex officio by the plaintiff's appeal against the defendant A.

An appeal may only be filed against a judgment unfavorable to himself/herself, and an appeal against a judgment in favor of the whole winning judgment is unlawful as there is no benefit.

(See Supreme Court Decision 2007Da20235 Decided July 13, 2007, etc.). The Plaintiff filed a claim against the Defendant for payment of the amount stated in the claim against the Defendant A, and the court of first instance rendered a judgment in favor of the Plaintiff against the Defendant A in whole, is apparent in the record. As such, the Plaintiff’s appeal against the Defendant A filed against the first instance judgment that won the entire winning judgment is unlawful as there is no benefit of appeal.

3. Determination as to the claim against the defendant B

A. The gist of the Plaintiff’s assertion is not only a business takeover that belongs to the Defendant A’s trade name, but also a company that has been established by abusing its legal personality to evade the Defendant A’s obligations, and thus, the said unpaid service amount is jointly and severally with the Defendant A in accordance with Article 42(1) of the Commercial Act or the legal doctrine of denial of legal personality.
