3. Judgment on the main defense of this case
A. Main Safety Defenses
The Defendants, unlike the above contents of the Notarial Deed after the Deceased prepared the Notarial Deed, made a will by recording of this case, stating that the deceased’s property is divided according to legal inheritance. This constitutes a case where a will is withdrawn before and after Article 1109 of the Civil Act, and thus, the Plaintiff cannot be deemed an executor, and the lawsuit of this case filed by the Plaintiff is unlawful.
B. Determination
1) A will by recording as stipulated in Article 1067 of the Civil Act shall be made orally by the testator, his name and date, and a witness who has participated in the will shall be able to accurately and orally state the intent of the will, and the name of the witness who has participated in the will. In this case, the will by recording of this case shall be valid as being made in accordance with the method stipulated in Article 1067 of the Civil Act
On the other hand, a testator may at any time withdraw the whole or part of his will as a will or an act before and after the will (Article 1108(1) of the Civil Act), and in cases where a will conflicts with another will or an act of a birth after the will conflicts with that of the will, the previous will of the part in conflict with that of the will shall be deemed to have been withdrawn (Article 1109 of the Civil Act). Unlike the contents of the above Notarial Deed after the Deceased prepared the Notarial Deed, the fact that the deceased made a will by means of the recording of this case, stating that the property of the deceased is divided into legal inheritance portion. Thus, it is reasonable to deem that the will by an Notarial Deed of this case was withdrawn because it conflicts with the contents of the will by the recording of this case. Since the Deceased did not separately designate the executor by the will by the recording of this case, it is reasonable to deem that the part in which the executor was designated as the plaintiff also withdrawn by
2) In light of the fact that the deceased was unable to make a statement even at the time of his/her will at the time of his/her will due to the recording of this case, the plaintiff recorded several same contents in several times, and that he/she did not have a very good condition with the symptoms of the end cancer at the time of his/her will, the above will is asserted as null and void because he/she made a will against the true will under a very poor condition with the deceased's mental capacity and recognition ability. Thus, according to the health unit, the statement of evidence No. 11 and No. 13, the witness testimony of the deceased, the deceased visited the 2-dong community service center located in Daejeon on the day of his/her will by means of the recording of this case to obtain his/her personal seal impression and certified copy of the will. According to the medical records of the deceased, the deceased did not have any legal knowledge of his/her will from July 24, 2014 to 30, and the deceased did not have any specific evidence of his/her mental character and influence at the time of his/her will.
Therefore, the Plaintiff cannot be deemed as an executor by a will based on the notarial deed of this case. Thus, each of the instant lawsuits based on the premise that the Plaintiff is in the executor’s position is unlawful as being brought by a person who is not a party to the lawsuit. Accordingly, the Defendants’ main defense pointing this out is with merit.
4. Conclusion
Therefore, since the plaintiff's lawsuit against the defendants is unlawful, it is decided to dismiss all of the lawsuits. It is so decided as per Disposition.
