(Appeal of Dissatisfaction and Decision)


(1) A person who has filed an objection or the person concerned may, when dissatisfied with the decision as provided in Article 41 (2), file an appeal
of dissatisfaction in writing with the competent Gu/Si/Gun election commission by the date following the date when the notification is received.


(2) The competent Gu/Si/Gun election commission shall, upon receiving an appeal as provided in paragraph (1), examine and decide on it, by the
date following the date when the appeal is filed, but if deciding that the appeal is well-grounded, shall immediately notify the head of the Gu/Si/Gun concerned thereof so that the head can correct the electoral register and notify the person who has filed the appeal and the person concerned, and if deciding that the appeal is groundless, shall notify the person who has filed the appeal and the head of the Gu/Si/Gun concerned.
