Judgment of the lower court

Seoul Criminal Court Decision 89No5579 delivered on May 4, 1990

Text

The judgment of the court below is reversed, and the case is remanded to the Panel Division of the Seoul Criminal Court.

Reasons

Of the grounds of appeal, we examine the misapprehension of legal principles as to adultery use.

The judgment of the court below reversed and remanded the judgment of the court of first instance which held that the complaint against the adultery after the above statement was filed by the non-indicted 1, the spouse of the defendant 1, on the ground that the defendant 1 made a statement to the defendant 1's attorney to attend the trial date and to respond to the claim for divorce on the ground that the defendant 1's non-indicted 1 was the defendant 1 as the defendant 1's spouse, but in the case of judicial divorce, even if such statement was made, it is difficult to view that the defendant 1 had an intention to accept the claim for divorce because it could not be the same as the case where a complete divorce agreement was made in the case where the agreement was reached

However, in a case where the parties to a marriage have no intention to continue a matrimonial relationship and there is an obvious agreement with the intention to divorce, even if the marital relationship remains legally, it shall be deemed that the expression of intent to end, which is the prior consent to the adultery, is included in the agreement (see Supreme Court Decision 68Do859, Feb. 25, 1969; Supreme Court Decision 71Do2259, Oct. 11, 1977; Supreme Court Decision 77Do2701, Oct. 11, 197; Supreme Court Decision 77Do2701, Oct. 11, 197).

According to the records, Defendant 1 and the complainant continued to be separated from the legal couple who reported on December 15, 1979 or on April 1980, and Defendant 1 filed an appeal for divorce against the Nonindicted Party. On July 1983, the court of first instance, the second instance, and the Supreme Court decided against Defendant 1, but thereafter, the Nonindicted Party appeared on October 31, 1986 and 2 respectively on November 1, 1986 (on the day prior to the instant intermodal action), and it was reasonable for the Nonindicted Party 1 to file a complaint to have his conviction final and conclusive, and the Nonindicted Party 1 appeared on November 13, 1986, and brought a lawsuit for divorce and claim against the Nonindicted Party 1 on the ground of the above inter-Korean marital relation. On March 27, 1987, the aforementioned legal representative was present on the date of the trial of divorce, and the judgment of the Supreme Court became final and conclusive as to the amount of divorce between the Defendant and the Defendant 1 and the Defendant 2 stated on the divorce.

The court below erred in the misapprehension of the legal principles as to the use of adultery, and there are reasonable grounds to point this out.

Therefore, without determining other grounds of appeal, the judgment of the court below is reversed, and the case is remanded to the Panel Division of the Seoul Criminal Court. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
