1. With respect to “the method and procedure for enforcement” in Article 4 (1) of the Act, except as otherwise provided in this Act or any order issued under this Act, the provisions of the Acts relating to the military assistance enumerated in the following subparagraphs shall apply mutatis mutandis:
1. Article 3(2) of the Act on the Special Protection of Persons, etc. of Distinguished Service to the State shall apply mutatis mutandis to the determination of the scope of bereaved family members of a patriot, and there is no room to apply the Act on the Special Protection of Persons, etc. of Distinguished Service to the State. Since the provision of a patriot does not fall under any of the subparagraphs of Article 3(2) of the Act on the Special Protection of Persons, etc. of Distinguished Service to the State, it shall not be deemed that the Plaintiff is the deceased non-party 2’s bereaved family member as a patriot. The decision of the court below to this purport is just and there is no error in the misapprehension of legal principles as to the bereaved family members of a patriot
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed, and the costs of the appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
