[Chosun Ilbo] Disposition of assets of Japanese companies that influence the relations between Korea and Japan, wwwwwwwwwwwwwwww In connection with compensation for compulsory victims by the Japanese Emperor, the possibility of the forced sale of assets held by Nippon Steel (currently Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal) in Korea is increasing at the discretion of the court. Compensation issues for forced victims who are pushing Korea-Japan relations into catastrophes are left to the judgment of the judge. According to the court, Daegu District Hohang Pohang Branch delivered an inquiry to Nippon Steel on July 8 through the administration of the Great Court of Justice, but it has not received an answer for more than 60 days. If there is no response, according to the Civil Code, it will be decided whether to permit forced sale without questioning procedures in the court. A lawyer official said, “Nippon Steel is currently refusing to confirm that it has received an interrogation.” Last year, the Grand Court issued a ruling that Nippon Steel ordered victims of compulsory reimbursement to be compensated for 100 million won (about 9.13 million yen) per person, but the Japanese steel side is consistently unresponsive. Eventually, the victim allegedly forced the sale of domestic shares owned by Nippon Steel (equivalent to 973 million won), and the court started the sale procedure. During this process, on July 8, the Court of Justice sent an inquiry to the Japanese side stating that “If there is an opinion related to the application for sale order, please submit it in writing within 60 days”. The 60th is counted from the day when the Japanese side receives the inquiry. The interrogation letter sent by the Great Court on July 8 is said to have arrived at the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs on July 14. The 60th day is September 12th. However, as of the 15th, the Korean court has not even been able to confirm that it has received an inquiry from Nippon Steel. For this reason, the court will determine the sale date based on assumptions. The official of the court said, “On the last 60 days, Nippon Steel sent an answer to the interrogation to South Korea, through the Japanese consulate, the court, etc. I'm considering the time. " If Nippon Steel actually sent an interrogation book on the 60th day, the court will begin the interrogation procedure based on it. In that case, the forced sale period is likely to cross years. However, if Nippon Steel continues to respond without any response, Pohang Branch will consider that it will be enough for 3-4 months from July 8, and the examination procedure will take place in October-November. Will be omitted, and the decision-making process regarding forced sale permission will be entered. Since the court has already made a ruling of 100 million won per victim, the legal profession believes that the decision to sell may be made as early as this year. * Some excerpts from the link below.
