The grounds of appeal by the Plaintiff’s attorney are examined.
According to the provision of Article 43 of the Road Act, the road management agency may collect occupancy charges from the person who occupies and uses the road under the provision of Article 40 (Permit for Occupation and Use). (2) Article 35 (2) of the Road Act provides that matters necessary for tolls and collection shall be determined by the Ordinance of the Ministry of Construction and Transportation in the case of national highways and by the Ordinance of the local government to which the road management agency concerned belongs in the case of other roads. Article 80-2 of the Road Act provides that an objection shall be collected from the person who occupies and uses the road without permission under the provision of Article 40 (Permit for Use and Use and Use. In this case, the method of collection shall be determined in the same manner as that of collection of road usage charges, and it shall be determined that the person who has an objection against the provision of Article 16 of the Seoul Special Metropolitan City Ordinance on Collection of Road occupation and Use Charges and the Enforcement Rule of the same Act shall be deemed to be unlawful within 30 days prior to the date of receipt of the notification. Thus, the court below's decision that there is no error of law as to apply the above 130 of the Road Act.
Therefore, the court below's decision that dismissed the lawsuit of this case as unlawful because it did not go through legitimate pre-trial procedure is just, and the above error of the court below does not affect any conclusion of the judgment, and it is without merit.
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.
