2. The plaintiff's assertion and judgment
A. (1) On September 22, 2003, the Defendant filed a lawsuit against the Plaintiff regarding an automobile accident that occurred while driving a non-insurance vehicle owned by C, a representative of B on December 30, 2002, with the effect that the Defendant paid KRW 24,309,480, including the agreed amount and medical expenses, to D, the victim of the automobile accident, and received KRW 10,300,000 from C, and acquired the Plaintiff’s right to indemnity against the remainder of KRW 14,309,480, and the judgment of this case was pronounced.
(2) However, the Defendant’s claim for the amount of indemnity expired after the lapse of the five-year prescription from September 22, 2003, and the Defendant agreed that C shall pay the amount of indemnity to the Defendant between C and C, but the Defendant shall not claim the amount of indemnity to the Plaintiff.
(3) The enforcement by the Defendant’s judgment in this case constitutes an abuse of right that violates the good faith principle and thus should not be allowed.
B. (1) In the event of a final judgment which became final and conclusive, any assertion or defense based on the grounds that could have been generated and submitted prior to the closure of pleadings at a fact-finding court is prohibited by res judicata of the final and conclusive judgment, and thus, the parties are not allowed to newly make such grounds contrary to the final
(2) Accordingly, the Defendant’s claim for reimbursement has expired.
