Reasons
around 1:00 new walls of February 4, 1980 by Nonparty 1, who is the plaintiffs, the plaintiffs, were locked in the building of Samyang-gu, Gangwon-do, which is the joint ownership of Defendant 1 and his children, and the fire occurred in his room, and the fact that us died on 8th day of the same month during the medical treatment by suffering images, is not a dispute between us.
The plaintiffs asserted that, as the cause of the principal lawsuit, the above building was worn out of the so-called Japanese-style Japanese-style 70 years ago, and the fire occurred due to the difference between the kitchen and the release of the above building and Defendant 2, who is an employee of the above building, the manager of the above building, even though there were many concerns about fire occurrence, Defendant 2, as the manager of the above building, failed to confirm whether the above non-party et al. were able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to.
In a case where the above-mentioned 5-year old-end kitchen building was destroyed by a 5-year old-end kitchen, it is difficult for the defendants to use the 1-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building, and it is hard for them to use the 1-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building and to use the 1-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building and to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building and to use the 1-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building and to use the 1-year old-end kitchen building to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building, and it is difficult for them to use the 5-year old-end kitchen building to use the 1-year old-end kitchen building without any dispute.
Therefore, the plaintiffs' claim for this case is unfair, and it is just in the judgment of the court below. Therefore, since the plaintiffs' appeal and the extended claim in the trial are unfair, all of them are dismissed and the costs of appeal are assessed against the plaintiffs who have lost them. It is so decided as per Disposition.
