I don't know where the 460 million figure comes from...Korean courts are viewed (from the general perspective of international reputation) as reliable, but that's not what one would take away both from hearsay and the articles one finds here. As someone who deals with high-stakes civil litigation, while the US system isn't perfect, the people who are making decisions are pretty damn smart/well-versed in the law and for the most part not prone to personal prejudice...but the more I hear, not sure I could say the same about Korea.
In the US, most complaints (and other items on the docket such as motions to dismiss, judgments) are part of the public record, and can be found either using a Google search or through something like Justia or PACER. Anyone know if something like that exists in Korea? (Korean language I'd imagine, which is fine. Even something comparable to law360.com that gives summaries would be great.) |
