2. The assertion and judgment
A. As above, it can be recognized that immunity has become final and conclusive. Accordingly, barring any special circumstance, the Plaintiff’s liability for the above obligation against the Defendant is exempted.
B. As to this, the Defendant asserted to the effect that the Plaintiff did not enter the above claims in bad faith in the course of bankruptcy and application for immunity, the above claims constitute “claims not entered in the creditor registry in bad faith” under Article 566 subparag. 7 of the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act, and thus excluded from the scope of immunity.
The term “claim not entered in the list of creditors in bad faith” under Article 566 subparag. 7 of the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act refers to a case where a debtor knows the existence of an obligation against a bankruptcy creditor before immunity is granted, but fails to enter it in the list of creditors. Therefore, if the debtor was unaware of the existence of an obligation, he/she did not know such fact.
