Title
Procedures for compulsory execution under the Civil Execution Act and those for disposition on default under the National Tax Collection Act are separate procedures;
Summary
Since the compulsory execution procedure under the Civil Execution Act and the procedure for the disposition on default under the National Tax Collection Act are separate procedures, even if a wage creditor who has preferential right to payment was issued a seizure and collection order, it cannot be deemed as unjust enrichment unless the tax authority participates in the delinquent procedure.
