Reasons
Judgment on the Grounds of Appeal
First, we examine the second ground for appeal by the Plaintiff’s attorney.
According to the reasoning of the judgment of the court below, the court below recognized the compensation amount of damages for the damages for the plaintiff's loss against the same plaintiff as the plaintiff's son's son's son's son's death, as KRW 1,500,000,000, respectively. The plaintiff, based on the evidence of the city, received KRW 815,210 as bereaved family's benefits from the Korea Workers' Office as a beneficiary who had worked for the same deceased as her bereaved family member, and received KRW 300,000,000 from the Korea Automobile Insurance Company to which the same son's son's son's son was a member of the family, and further confirmed that the plaintiff received KRW 30,00,00 insurance money from the Korea Automobile Insurance Company to which the above son's son's son was a member of the deceased, and there was a claim for damages due to the defendant's tort, but the above bereaved family's benefits and insurance claims are also in the nature of civil damages.
Article 11(1) of the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act provides that when a beneficiary receives insurance benefits under this Act for the same reason, the insured shall be exempted from all the liability for accident compensation under the Labor Standards Act for the same reason. Article 11(2) of the same Act provides that when the beneficiary receives insurance benefits for the same reason, the insured shall be exempted from the liability for accident compensation under the Civil Act and other Acts and subordinate statutes within the limit of such amount. When the beneficiary receives insurance benefits under this Act, the beneficiary cannot make any claim for accident compensation under the Labor Standards Act for the same reason, and it clearly states that the beneficiary shall not be entitled to any claim for accident compensation under the Civil Act and other Acts and subordinate statutes within the limit of the amount received. Article 15(1) of the same Act provides that the Administrator of the Labor Agency shall subrogate the beneficiary of the insurance benefits to the third party within the limit of the amount of benefits if the beneficiary has received the insurance benefits for the same reason from the third party, the Administrator of the Labor Agency shall not grant any compensation within the limit of the amount of damages received from the third party's act.
However, since Article 3 of the Automobile Accident Compensation Act provides that a person who operates an automobile for his own interest shall be liable to compensate for damages when he thought that he did not neglect to pay attention to the operation of his automobile and that he did not interfere with the structure and functions of the vehicle, and that the non-party's liability for damages under the provisions of Article 3 can be claimed against the Minister of Construction and Transportation or the non-party's owner of the accident under the conditions as prescribed by the Presidential Decree, because the non-party's 0 driver's duty of care should be deducted from the 0 driver's negligence on the part of the non-party's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 0 driver's 10 driver's 10 driver's 10 driver's 10 driver's 10 driver's 200 driver's 10 driver's 20 driver's 20 driver's 1.
Therefore, this decision is delivered with the assent of all Justices who reviewed the appeal.
