Reasons
As to the Grounds of Appeal
Where only the defendant appealed and the part against the defendant against the judgment of the court below is reversed and remanded, the scope of adjudication of the case to be remanded to the court below shall not exceed the above part of the judgment of the court below and therefore, it shall not be disadvantageous to the defendant beyond this limit (Article 78Da1327, Nov. 14, 1978 and Supreme Court Decision 62Da785, Jan. 24, 1963). However, since the litigation procedures of the court of appeal are continued before the remand, in principle, the parties can submit new facts and evidence, and the parties can conduct all procedural acts permitted at that court level other than the alteration of the lawsuit and the incidental appeal, and for this reason, the Civil Procedure Act does not prohibit any change of disadvantage like Article 368 of the Criminal Procedure Act, and it is inevitable to view that it is more unfavorable to the appellant than the judgment prior to remand (Article 67Da164, Dec. 23, 1969; Supreme Court Decision 9Da839, Sep. 28, 1982).
According to the records, when the part of the defendant's complaint as to property damage was reversed and remanded through the appeal by the defendant only, the plaintiff extended the purport of the claim at the court below thereafter, and the court below cited the plaintiff's claim more than the court below's prior to remand within the scope of the claim. Thus, it is justified in accordance with the above legal principles (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 66Da1004, Sept. 20, 196), and there is no error in the misapprehension of legal principles as to the scope of the appellate court's trial or in violation of the good faith principle as to the scope of the plaintiff's appeal
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed and the costs of appeal are assessed against the losing defendant. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
