  • 공탁이란 채권자의 수령거절이나 수령불능 또는 채권자를 알 수 없는 등으로 변제를 할 수 없는 때에 변제자가 채권자를 위하여 변제의 목적물을 지방법원 공탁소에 임치함으로써 채무를 면하는 제도를 말한다. 또한 권리의 실현과정에서 다양한 기능을 하고 있는 법적제도이지만, 국민의 권리실현을 위한 채무자 보호입장에서 실질적으로 사적기관에 이임되는 경우가 많다. 특히 오랜 역사 속에서 발전되어 온 공탁제도는 처음에는 선의의 채무자를 보호하기 위한 제도로 출발하였으나, 현재는 권리구제적인 측면에서 제재나 보안수단으로 발전되어 온 것이 사실이다. 그러나 이 공탁제도가 시대상황을 잘 반영하여 운영하고 있지만, 공탁물의 범위에 있어서 외국화폐나 사법상의 재산권을 표창하는 증거증권은 그 범주에 들지 않는 문제점 등이 제기되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 외국의 입법례를 통하여 우리의 현행 민법 하에서 국민의 법 감정과 정서에 맞는 가장 바람직한 공탁제도의 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

  • Under the Civil Code and related law in Korea, the liability for defects after delivery belongs to the Contractor. However, various disputes have occurred in relation to the remedy of such defects and the compensation for damages, which are the main liability of a contractor in the event of defects. Despite court decisions regarding defect liability, many problems prevail in the real world. For this reason, this working-level research considers the introduction of a performance warranty contract system. To establish the system successfully, it is necessary to analyze the trend of various warranty cases in the US. Therefore, the warranty system of the US was first examined, and the effect of acceptance, notification and burden of proof, remedies under warranty clauses, and default termination were investigated and analyzed in this study.

However, finding out the correct cause is an element important to prevent similar accident and to determine the liability reverted.

  • On 11 June 2021, the Supreme Court ruled that the judgment of the lower court was justified for the subject case, that the plaintiff could assert the defendant's liability for default due to incomplete performance even though the warranty period for defects which stipulated in the particular condition of the contract has expired. In Korean civil law, the concurrent between the exclusion period for defect warranty and the extinctive prescription for default liability is conceded, since the exclusion period and the extinctive prescription have their respective purposes in law, therefore these two should be judged by harmonizing them based on that they are mutually related. If the subject judgment is generalized, there is no reason to exist for the provisions of defect liability in the construction contract any longer. This study examines the subject judgments through the general theory and precedent case studies on the defect liability and default liability, then derived any problems that may arise if the subject judgment is generalized. In addition, based on a realistic model, it was suggested for a practical improvement method that both the provisions of the warranty period shall be changed realistic and to stipulate the character of its nature as written provisions in the contract.

  • Recently, many nations said "yes" to human embryonic stem cell research, signing an executive order to permit funding for the research in the mame of achieving health and life of humankind. Human Embryo Research is permitted by our Bioethics & Biosafety Act. But, illegal research cannot be divorced from civil liability since it requires the destruction of eggs of fertilized eggs and personal rights of embryo-creator. After all, though we allow to do research embryo, we should control the capacity of abuse of embryo research for embryo-creator. If research violate the law(Bioethics & Biosafety Act or Civil Law, etc), it comes to a delict by pecuniary loss and non-pecuniary loss. When it comes to pecuniary loss, Human Embryo is not body but special property. Supreme Court maintained a stance that mental suffering is generally deemed as compensable for damages for the loss of property where a person's property right is invaded by a tort or non-performance of obligation. Thus, where mental suffering occurs, which cannot be compensated by recovery of property losses, the situation must be a special circumstance and the injured could claim consolation money for such losses only if the offender knew or would have known of such special circumstances(Supreme Court Decision 96Da31574 delivered on Nov, 26, 1996, etc.). That is to say, Supreme Court regards mental suffering through person's property right invaded by a tort as damages that have arisen through special circumstances. According to Civil law article 393 (2), the injured could claim consolation money for such losses only if only if the offender had foreseen or could have foreseen such circumstances. Also our court will solve through damages for non-pecuniary loss by complementary function of consolation money in that pecuniary loss could be difficult to valuate.

  • In this paper we firstly review the developmental stages of the Chinese civil aviation industry since 1949 and the background history of the Chinese Civil Aviation Law of 1996. We secondly analyzed the main terms and conditions about the Chinese civil aviation law and pointed out several problematic issues in view of the development of the Chinese aviation industry. Current civil aviation law in China has been in effect for the last 12 years. In these periods, Chinese civil aviation industry has developed in a high speed and great changes have occurred in its market environments. Thus, some of the terms and conditions in current civil aviation law in China have become outdated and unsuitable for the current developmental stage of the Chinese civil aviation industry. Therefore, we proposed some directions of the future amending of the Chinese Civil Aviation Law.

  • The international sale transaction is in essence a sale of goods and presents all those commercial and legal problems in any sale of goods. As a result, A International sales contract imposes several duties on the parties : the seller must deliver the goods and transfer ownership in them, while the buyer must pay the price and take delivery of the goods. However, there are several problems which impede a active transaction between seller and buyer who have their places of business in other countries each other. Therefore, It is necessary to provide the concept on the conformity of goods in the Int'l Sale of Goods. Especially, In our consideration for the point of time when defects occurs, the existence of non-conformity of goods should be judged on the basis of time of delivery rather than time of contract. Moreover, The burden of proof about nonconformity of goods is another fact which make an international dispute between the contractual parties in an international trade. Thus, The consistency in the interpretation of law must be maintained betweened the warranty and seller's liability. In the Uniform Commercial Code and UN Convention, non-conformity of contract is made of contract liability. And in our civil and commercial law provisions of warranty should be understand as the special ones of the provisions of general non-performance of obligation liability. As a result, More concrete study of them is required because they may have a great influence especially on international trade. As a result, We should be our best in finding a helpful and systematic structure that the dualistic structure of nonperformance of obligation liability and warranty liability must be unified by studying the theories of English and American warranty and our legal system, as well as international practice and usage being used in an international trade.
