1. The parties' assertion
A. The Plaintiff entered into a lease agreement with the Defendant, who was the mother of the Plaintiff, on the instant vehicle under the name of the Defendant (hereinafter “instant vehicle”), and paid a deposit of KRW 20 million and monthly rent.
However, the Defendant forced the Defendant to deliver the instant vehicle to the Defendant (hereinafter “instant letter”) and delivered the instant vehicle to the Defendant on June 24, 2017.
Since the defendant uses the vehicle of this case to gain profits equivalent to KRW 20 million without any legal cause, he is obligated to return it as unjust enrichment and pay damages for delay.
B. The Defendant demanded the Plaintiff to transfer the name of the lease agreement on the instant vehicle.
The Plaintiff, upon requesting the Defendant to actually take over the instant vehicle, prepared the instant letter under the condition that the Defendant bears the lease fee for the remainder of the lease period or penalty for breach of contract, etc., instead of waiver of the lease deposit amount to KRW 20 million, and accordingly, delivered the instant vehicle to the Defendant.
