Reasons
As to the ground of appeal by the defendant representative
According to the facts established by the original judgment, the plaintiff received a distribution of the original land as a farmer of the main land (588-9) under Article 11 subparagraph 1 of the Farmland Reform Act, and the motive of the plaintiff's cultivation of the present land was made by Japanese people who acquired the right to use and profit from the present land in accordance with the replotting plan, so long as the plaintiff received a distribution of the present land, it is reasonable to interpret that the land which the plaintiff acquired in a conclusive manner is the land of this case, and even if a replotting disposition in accordance with the replotting plan is completed, any change may not occur in the object of ownership acquired by distribution, as provided by the Farmland Reform Act, even if a replotting disposition in accordance with the replotting plan has been completed, it is reasonable to interpret that the distribution in the Farmland Reform Act as to the present land (588-9) is null and void. Therefore, all of the arguments are without merit.
Therefore, it is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating judges pursuant to Article 400 of the Civil Procedure Act.
