2. Determination

A. The plaintiff asserts that the decision on the cause of the claim should exclude the enforcement force since the bill bond of this case under the Notarial Deed has expired by prescription.

A promissory note payable at sight shall be presented for payment within one year from the date of issuance, and the time presented for payment shall be the maturity (Articles 77(1)2 and 34(1) of the Bills of Exchange and Promissory Notes Act), and if no lawful payment is presented within one year, the extinctive prescription of the obligations of the Promissory Notes shall run from the maturity on the last day of the given period after the maturity.

(See Supreme Court Decision 2007Da40352 Decided November 15, 2007). In addition, a claim on a promissory note against the issuer shall expire if it is not exercised within three years from the maturity date (Articles 77(1)8, 78(1), and 70(1) of the Bills of Exchange and Promissory Notes Act). This case shall be examined, and the issue date of the Promissory Notes shall be October 14, 2014, and the due date shall be written at sight as seen earlier, and the Defendant shall be within one year from the date of the said issuance.
