[Ground of recognition] Unsatisfy, Gap evidence Nos. 2 and 4, the purport of the whole pleadings

2. Assertion and determination

A. The plaintiff's assertion

The notice of the application for payment of a tax evasion report (Evidence A No. 4) sent by the head of the tax office to the Plaintiff on July 20, 201. As such, the payment date of the second reward of this case should have been determined until July 20, 201. At the latest, the second reward of this case should have been paid by the end of the following month after July 20, 201. However, the second reward of this case should have been paid on May 23, 2014 as the tax Tribunal went beyond the time limit for the handling of the relevant provisions. The tax Tribunal violated Article 65 of the Framework Act on National Taxes that should be decided within 90 days, while the tax official violates Article 15 of the Framework Act on National Taxes and the tax official shall faithfully observe the limit generally deemed reasonable in light of the equity of taxation and the purpose of the relevant tax law. Accordingly, the Defendant shall pay the Plaintiff the damages incurred by the second reward of this case and the damages incurred by delay to the Plaintiff pursuant to Article 19 of the Civil Act.

B. Relevant statutes

Attached Form is as shown in the attached Form.

C. Determination

Article 84-2(1) of the former Framework Act on National Taxes (amended by Act No. 11124, Dec. 31, 2011) and Article 65-4(1) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Framework Act on National Taxes (amended by Presidential Decree No. 23592, Feb. 2, 2012) provide that “it may be possible to pay a monetary reward.” Therefore, in accordance with the above provision, it cannot be deemed that a specific claim has occurred to a provider of data, and further, the payment period of the monetary reward is not fixed. Each of the above provisions provides that “The payment may still be made” regardless of several amendments thereafter.

Article 84-2(6) of the former Framework Act on National Taxes and Article 65-4(17) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Framework Act on National Taxes provide that the payment of rewards for reporting tax evasion (No. 1865 of the National Tax Service Directive, Jun. 30, 2010), which is delegated under Article 7 of the former Regulations on the Payment of Rewards for Tax Evasion (No. 1865 of the National Tax Service Directive), shall be made after the determination of the period for payment of rewards, which is not the first time for the payment of rewards. Article 8(3) of the above Directive of the National Tax Service provides that the person in charge of reporting tax evasion shall inform the informant of the application for payment of rewards when the period for payment of rewards under Article 7 becomes final and conclusive, and the payment of rewards cannot be seen as the payment of rewards by the last day of the 20th anniversary of the date for payment of rewards determined by the National Tax Service.

Article 65 applicable mutatis mutandis under Article 81 of the Framework Act on National Taxes provides that the Tax Tribunal shall make a decision within 90 days of the determination of the adjudication, but this is deemed a provision of decoration notwithstanding the relevant law. Therefore, the mere fact that the Tax Tribunal made a decision beyond the above deadline for the plaintiff's request for adjudication cannot be immediately deemed unlawful, and no other evidence exists to acknowledge that the relevant public official violated Article 19 of the Framework Act on National Taxes by performing his/her duties beyond

Therefore, the plaintiff's assertion is without merit.

3. Conclusion

The judgment of the court of first instance is just in conclusion and thus, the plaintiff's appeal is dismissed.
