Text

All appeals are dismissed.

The costs of appeal are assessed against the plaintiffs.

Reasons

We examine the Plaintiffs’ agent’ ground of appeal No. 1.

According to the arguments, even if a soldier leads a vehicle in the military to drink alcohol, he/she shall work in the military unit and drink for rest to recover from the path. Therefore, this act asserts that it is a series of acts in the military unit.

However, it cannot be deemed that leaving a vehicle within the military room to take any rest in order to drink, it is related to the soldier’s duty. In addition, it cannot be deemed that the above act is closely related to the soldier’s duty. In appearance, it is difficult to see that the soldier’s duty is the soldier’s duty. According to the facts established by the court below, Nonparty 1, who visited Nonparty 2, etc., a civilian who visited himself, was inside and outside the military room to drink alcohol, and caused the death of Nonparty 2. For this reason, the Plaintiffs claiming consolation money for this reason, and in this case, Nonparty 1, who is the parent of the deceased, who is a public official, did not have any damage to another person (see, e.g., e., Supreme Court Decision 200Do4288, Apr. 2, 2008).

Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed in entirety by the assent of all participating judges, and the costs of appeal are assessed against the losing parties.

The judge of the Supreme Court (Presiding Judge) of the Republic of Korea shall have the authority to transfer a red net holiday.
