The court's explanation on this part is identical to the statement between 4 and 9 of the first instance court's grounds for appeal No. 2, 4 and 9 of the fourth. Thus, this part is cited in accordance with Article 8 (2) of the Administrative Litigation Act and Article 420 of the Civil Procedure Act.

According to the purport of the entire pleadings, the Defendant may recognize the fact that the instant disposition was revoked ex officio on August 27, 2015, which is after the judgment of remand of the Supreme Court, after the judgment of remand of the Supreme Court. Accordingly, the instant lawsuit seeking revocation of a disposition that has not been extinguished, and thus, became unlawful as
