2. Whether the legal nature of the money paid by the Plaintiff to the Defendants, a married couple, constitutes either a loan or an onerous donation
3. The parties' assertion
A. The Plaintiff’s primary assertion 1) The Plaintiff lent each of the above money to the Defendants without setting the interest or the due date. 2) The Defendants donated each of the above money to the Defendants on the condition that they support the Plaintiff, and the Defendants rescinded the contract of donation with the Defendants due to their nonperformance of the Defendants’ duty to support.
Even if it is not so, the plaintiff has donated each of the above money to the defendants who want to support the plaintiff. Therefore, the contract of donation is made on the grounds of the defendants' deception.
