事實及理由
一、原告主張:兩造原為夫妻,嗣於民國112年11月7日離婚。被 告故意於附表所示時間,在多數人可瀏覽之社群網站「Face book」(下稱「臉書」),公開張貼附表所示貼文,侮辱毀 謗原告,貶損原告人格及社會評價,侵害原告名譽,應負侵 權行為損害賠償責任,爰依侵權行為損害賠償之法律關係, 提起本件訴訟等語。並聲明:被告應給付原告新臺幣(下同 )50萬元(見調字卷第11頁、簡字卷第47頁)。二、被告則以:我111年1月12日的臉書貼文,是藉由一首兒歌開 頭,寫了臉書,這是我的創作,我擔心遭遇不測,所以在臉 書版面寫下連警察都看的到的貼文,至於其他貼文,我是講 出事實,不帶任何髒字,沒有抵損或侵害原告之任何權利, 我是講出事實,不帶任何髒字,純粹是經由我的言語、民主 所寫出來的,如果原告要用這樣的對話請求我負損害賠償責 任,我覺得極度不合理,因為貼文裡沒人知道葛蘭特、凱羅 是誰,我皆無誹謗原告名譽的意思,我是在臉書上尋找我失 蹤3年的法定丈夫即原告,希望他能出面扶養2名未成年子女 ,我貼的內容都是事實,沒有誹謗等語置辯。並聲明:原告 之訴駁回(見簡字卷第48、56頁)。
三、得心證之理由:
㈠原告主張被告於附表所示時間,於臉書張貼附表所示貼文乙 情,業據提出臉書頁面截圖(見調字卷第17至29頁,簡字卷 第61至65頁),並為被告所不爭執(見簡字卷第56頁),堪 信為真。
㈡按因故意或過失不法侵害他人之權利者,負損害賠償責任。
不法侵害他人之身體、健康、名譽、自由、信用、隱私、貞 操,或不法侵害其他人格法益而情節重大者,被害人雖非財 產上之損害,亦得請求賠償相當之金額,民法第184條第1項 前段、第195條第1項分別定有明文。復按被害人受有非財產 上損害,請求加害人賠償相當金額之慰撫金時,法院對於慰 撫金之量定,應斟酌實際加害情形、所造成之影響、被害人 痛苦之程度、兩造之身分地位經濟情形及其他各種狀況,以 核定相當之數額。查:被告雖以前揭情詞置辯,惟被告於附 表所示時間,於多數人得共見共聞之臉書,以「loser」、 「do crime in Taiwan」、「cheater」、「Jonathan Gran t this guy steal money from my mother to pay for his tuition on this program classes」等言語指稱原告,並 標註原告臉書「Jonathan Grant」之帳號,顯已貶損原告之 人格及社會評價,被告上開指摘內容足以毀損原告名譽,依 前揭說明,應認侵害原告名譽權。從而,原告依侵權行為之 法律關係,請求被告給付原告精神慰撫金,自屬有據。 ㈢又被害人因身體、健康受侵害,致受有非財產上之損害者, 雖亦得請求賠償,惟酌定精神慰撫金之多寡時,應斟酌被害 人及加害人雙方之身分、資力、經濟狀況、加害程度、被害 人所受痛苦及及其他各種情形,以核定相當之數額。本院審 酌兩造教育程度、經濟能力、社會地位(見簡字卷第57頁, 禁閱卷之兩造財產所得調件明細資料),及本件侵權行為態 樣、對原告人格貶損之程度,及原告所受精神上痛苦程度等 一切情狀,認原告請求之精神慰撫金以60,000元為適當,逾 此數額之請求,則無理由。
四、綜上所述,原告依侵權行為損害賠償之法律關係,請求被告 給付60,000元,為有理由,應予准許;逾此部分之請求,則 屬無據,應予駁回。
五、本判決原告勝訴部分,係命被告給付金額未逾50萬元所為之 判決,爰依民事訴訟法第389條第1項第5款規定,依職權宣 告假執行。
六、本件為判決基礎之事證已臻明確,兩造其餘主張陳述及攻擊 防禦方法,經本院審酌後,認均不影響本件判決結果,爰不 一一論述,併此敘明。
七、訴訟費用負擔之依據:民事訴訟法第79條。 中 華 民 國 113 年 5 月 24 日 臺灣臺南地方法院臺南簡易庭
