Reasons
We examine the grounds of appeal.
In light of the records, the court below is just in holding that as long as a vehicle is owned in the name of the non-indicted stock company and is operated in the automobile transport business, even if the actual condition in the automobile transport business is contrary to the assertion of the defendant in this case, it is merely an internal practice that agreed with the above company and the borrower in the management of the defendant, and in an external relationship with the above company, the above company's possession of the vehicle and operation of the vehicle cannot be deemed as a management entity. Therefore, even in the relation with the employees of the above company, the above company (or the defendant who is the representative director thereof) shall not be deemed to be directly responsible for the labor contract, and there is no error of law
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
