2. The assertion and judgment
A. The plaintiff's assertion 1) The accident of this case was caused by the defendant's game assistant, who was the defendant's employee, and caused the plaintiff's vehicle. Thus, the defendant is obligated to pay the above insurance money to the plaintiff as the employer of the above game assistant.
2) The Defendant’s Gyeonggi assistant is not a person working for the Defendant, and thus, the Defendant cannot be held liable for employer’s liability. Even if not, the instant accident is an event within the golf course and is at least 50% of the Plaintiff’s negligence.
B. Determination 1) As to whether the Defendant is liable for employer’s liability against the Gyeonggi assistant, the relationship between the employer and the employee under Article 756 of the Civil Act is not always limited to the case where there is an effective employment relationship, and even if the Gyeonggi assistant is not an employee under the Labor Act who provides labor for the purpose of wages in a subordinate relationship with the operator of the golf course’s establishment (see Supreme Court Decision 95Nu13432, Jul. 30, 1996), the Defendant may be deemed exempted from the employer’s liability.
