Summary of Judgment
Even though the marriage between the claimant and the respondent has been separated for a long time from the claimant and the respondent's living together, if the cause of the marriage is caused by the claimant's living together with the defendant (A) until now without leaving the respondent, the claimant shall be held liable entirely. Thus, even if the defendant's living conditions are inevitable to resolve the serious living situation due to the defendant's failure to obtain any economic help from the claimant, and giving birth of a child between him/her and (B) temporarily living together with the defendant is concurrent due to the cause of the failure, his/her responsibility shall also be deemed to be the claimant who continuously living together with the defendant without leaving the respondent. Thus, the claimant shall not file a divorce as the responsible spouse of the marriage dissolution.
