Text
The appeal is dismissed.
The costs of appeal shall be assessed against the defendants.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
According to the facts established by the judgment of the court below, the plaintiff newly constructed the building at issue in this case and purchased the building without being registered by the non-party who originally acquired the ownership. The non-party was a director of the building at the above building, but his mother or wife living with the non-party, who was living with the non-party, is still occupying each part of the building at the time of original adjudication.
In this case, the non-party is obligated to file a transfer registration in order to have the plaintiff acquire ownership, and the plaintiff is obligated to cooperate so that it does not interfere with the plaintiff's complete exercise of rights on the building. Meanwhile, the defendants are the non-party living together with the non-party living together with the above non-party, and only the non-party living together with the above non-party, and the defendants were possessed assistant. However, as in the case of this case, although the defendants already sold the above building and moved out, if they occupy the above building against the intention of the non-party by asserting that the building is not owned by the non-party, the defendants cannot be deemed to have legitimate right to possession. Accordingly, in relation to the non-party living with the non-party who is the owner, the plaintiff is illegal, and even if the plaintiff was not the owner, the plaintiff can request the plaintiff to act on behalf of the non-party who is the illegal possessor, the seller, and even if the plaintiff can directly claim the defendants' name.
In this regard, the judgment of the court below which accepted the plaintiff's claim is just, and it is not erroneous in the misapprehension of the legal principles as to the subrogation of the right to request for clarification, or in the misunderstanding of legal principles as to the motive duty, and thus, it is not accepted as a whole
Therefore, the appeal of this case is without merit and is dismissed, and the costs of appeal are jointly borne by the losing Defendants. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
