Text
The request for retrial is dismissed.
The litigation costs for retrial shall be borne by the plaintiff.
Reasons
The grounds for retrial are considered.
If it is impossible to make a judgment due to a defect in the requirements for a retrial suit, the suit for retrial shall be dismissed as unlawful. In such a case, even if there is no judgment on the merits, it cannot be deemed that “when a judgment on important matters that may affect the judgment is omitted” under Article 451(1)9 of the Civil Procedure Act applied mutatis mutandis by Article 8 of the Administrative Litigation Act (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2010Du219, Feb. 10, 201).
According to the records, the judgment subject to retrial was dismissed by deeming that the grounds for a retrial by the plaintiff (the plaintiff) does not constitute legitimate grounds for retrial. Thus, in light of the above legal principles, even if the judgment subject to retrial did not make a judgment on the merits, it cannot be deemed that the judgment was omitted on important matters affecting the judgment, and thus, the argument on the grounds for retrial under Article 451(1)9 of the Civil Procedure Act cannot be accepted.
Therefore, the retrial costs are dismissed, and the costs of retrial are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
