Summary of Evidence
After November 1, 2013, the Defendant asserts that there is no obligation to pay wages to the Defendant because he actually operates a worker who is not the Defendant, but the Defendant does not have the obligation to pay wages. However, in full view of the following circumstances, i.e., the Defendant’s performance of duties as a representative, such as: (i) the Defendant’s attending school after November 1, 2013; and (ii) the understanding angle with the employee’s representative claimed by the Defendant appears to have been made on April 2014; and (iii) even if following the content, it is difficult to interpret that the Defendant is not liable to pay wages by transferring all business rights to workers after November 1, 2013, the Defendant is liable to pay wages to the Defendant at least until April 2014.
