In this regard, the court below recognized that the plaintiffs knew of the existence of the above grounds for retrial after September 24, 1980, on which the original copy of the judgment was delivered to the plaintiffs' legal representative, and that the plaintiffs were not aware of the existence of such grounds for retrial after the lapse of the date when the judgment became final and conclusive pursuant to the provisions of Article 426 of the Civil Procedure Act, and Article 128 of the same Act.
