2. Purport of appeal
The part against the defendant regarding the claim for consolation money and division of property among the part concerning the principal lawsuit of the judgment of the first instance, shall be revoked, and the plaintiff's claim for principal lawsuit corresponding to the revoked part shall be dismissed (the defendant did not appeal against the counterclaim of the judgment of the first instance)
Reasons
The reasoning of the court's reasoning concerning this case is as follows: (a) during the first instance court's 6th and 7th court's 6th 6th e.g., "In addition, the defendant's 10,353,182 out of the amount that the defendant received as an honorary retirement allowance is compensation for the voluntary retirement, and the remaining amount of the voluntary retirement consolation benefits, other than 10,353,182 won, are not paid as compensation for the defendant's work, and thus it cannot be viewed that the plaintiff's contribution to the voluntary retirement allowance should be excluded from the property subject to division; (b) however, the above voluntary retirement consolation benefits, etc. have the nature of the compensation for work in addition to the nature as compensation for the voluntary retirement, and as long as it is reasonable to deem that the defendant contributed to the work in the Red Council until the voluntary retirement, the above argument is also included in the property subject to division, and therefore, it is without merit as stated in the reasoning of the first instance court's judgment.
Therefore, the judgment of the court of first instance is legitimate, and the defendant's appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition.
