Whether the claim for cancellation of the order is legitimate

In imposing penalty surcharges, the administrative agency shall impose penalty surcharges upon a person liable for payment and then impose it.

Where the amount of a penalty surcharge is reduced on account of defects in the amount of the penalty surcharge, the reduction disposition shall be the penalty surcharge reduced.

only the legal effect of this section, and the initial disposition and the separate independent penalty

The substance of the tax disposition, not the initial tax disposition, changes in the substance of the tax disposition, thereby making a part of the penalty

Since it is a disposition that leads to a favorable result for the person liable to pay the cancellation, the initial imposition

The disposition of imposition on a reduced portion by the reduction is not effective. Accordingly, the disposition of imposition on the reduced portion by the reduction is taken.

A claim is unlawful as against the already extinguished part of the lawsuit, as there is no benefit of the lawsuit (Supreme Court)

See Supreme Court Decision 2006Du4226 Decided February 15, 2008 (see Supreme Court Decision 2006Du4226, Feb. 15, 2008). In such cases, subject

As such, the name of the penalty surcharge of KRW 50,206,00,000 among the lawsuits in this case shall be the name of the penalty surcharge of KRW 50,200,000 in attached Table 1.

4. The plaintiff's assertion and judgment

A. Whether the collaborative act in this case is a separate collaborative act by non-class type

1) The plaintiff's assertion

Each non-type subject to the collaborative act of this case has no possibility of substitution with each other, and it is different from each other.

In order to establish a separate collaborative act in which the relevant market belongs to the opening-related market and the relevant market is different from each other;

Do The instant disposition was conducted on the premise that each of the non-types belongs to a single related market.

illegal.

2) Determination

In full view of the following circumstances, the relevant market was not defined for each non-Class;

Therefore, the instant disposition cannot be deemed unlawful.

(1) The bidding market for chemical fertilizers in which the collaborative act in this case occurred shall be a purchaser, a purchaser, a transaction subject thereto and a transaction protocol

Basic structure of transactions is limited, such as cases specified from the beginning, and subject to bidding;

each product contained in the subsection has been tendered through the same procedure in substance, and the co-ownership of this case

A business entity involved in an act does not have a separate agreement for each non-specific non-party, but has made a separate agreement.

agreement has been reached on all items included in the subject: Provided, That each agreement shall be made according to the content thereof.

Only participating in the tendering of other items. Such a tendering market shall be consistent with the general trading market.

The entire product subject to the agreement, i.e. the chemical fertilizer bid market, because there are characteristics distinguishing them.

It is reasonable to regard the relevant market as a related market. 7)

② Definition of the relevant market is necessary on the premise that competition restriction is determined, and the instant project is conducted.

Competition is conducted even if the total market share of the persons reaches 100%, and the relevant market for each non-class category is defined;

Since it does not affect the judgment of limitedness, it is necessary to define the relevant market differently from the defendant's disposition.

need not be required.

③ The Plaintiff is required to calculate penalty surcharges, etc., regardless of whether competition is restricted.

The head of the Gu must define and the defendant has the burden of proof, but the defendant has the relevant market of this case.

Since there was no precise market definition method such as economic analysis to define it, the burden of proof is not established.

The instant disposition asserts that the disposition was unlawful because it failed to meet all the requirements.

This is, however, the history and history of the concept of the relevant market, which was introduced into the Fair Trade Act as a "specific business area".

not only is it acceptable as against the substance of the universal competition law theory and transaction.

It is difficult to prove justifiable reasons, such as the resale price maintenance, in particular, Article 29 (1) of the Fair Trade Act.

It is necessary to define the relevant market only for the calculation of penalty surcharges in the type of conduct with responsible business operators.

and if the burden of proof exists to the defendant, the relevant market for determining the legitimate reason shall be

A. The relevant market for the calculation of penalty surcharges may lead to an unfair conclusion that the defendant must prove respectively.

Of course, the Enforcement Decree of the Fair Trade Act (wholly amended by Presidential Decree No. 23864, Jun. 19, 2012)

Section 1 of Article 9 (hereinafter the same shall apply) sells the relevant sales in a particular business area.

(b) The sales of services or the amount equivalent thereto shall be defined as "the sales of services or the amount of penalty surcharges, etc."

public notice on the Corporation (amended by Act No. 2012 - 6 of the Defendant’s notice on March 28, 2012), penalty surcharges not exceeding “assumed”

Notice 'Public Notice' 'The impact on the market on the basis of the calculation standards by type of violation 'IN 1' also 'the impact on the market'.

Although this regulation does not affect competition-restricted judgment, the relevant market is not affected by the relevant regulations.

It is difficult to say that the definition is necessary.

In addition, even where the relevant market is disputed in unfair collaborative acts, the precision through economic analysis.

The market definition is not necessarily necessary, but it is difficult to determine whether the competition is restricted.

D. reasonable doubt that the level and method of defining the relevant market conducted by the Defendant is inappropriate

It should be considered to be necessary to limit only when the case is raised to a considerable extent.

In addition, there is no dispute that the market share of the instant enterprisers reaches 100%.

Taking into account all the aspects of suppliers and consumers, there is a lack of substitution for each non-specific type of product.

and further between one buyer and a minority seller as in this case.

If a collaborative act is conducted, it is difficult to find out the benefits of economic analysis through surveys, etc.

Considering all the circumstances, such as the fact that the definition of the relevant market is inappropriate, a reasonable doubt is deemed inappropriate.

not so far as it has been filed.

(b) 21 - 17 - 17 - Whether the period of extinctive prescription for an agreement prior to 2003 of the fertilizer group and the component fertilizer group has expired.

1) The plaintiff's assertion

The relevant market is distinguished for each non-type and a separate agreement is established accordingly, and 2003

21 - 17 - In the 17 Fertilizer Group Tender, an agreement has been severed, and a new agreement has been made since 2004.

Since the agreement before 2003 of the above group of fertilizers was established, the five-year period of extinctive prescription has lapsed.

It should be deemed to be the case.

2) Facts of recognition

(see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision).

In light of these legal principles, the following private organizations recognized by the evidence mentioned above:

(1) A single chemical fertilizer tender from the year 1995 to the year 2010

Since the market was conducted, it shall be deemed that only the agreement on each of the non-identical species has been severed.

2. The Plaintiff: (a) 21 - 21 - 17 - 17 - 17 - 17 - 17 - 17 - 2

(1) The entry of the remaining fertilizer items and fertilizer groups made at the same time only after the full amount is awarded.

in the report, it shall be deemed that there was an act in contravention of the agreement explicitly since the agreement was implemented.

(3) The participation was made from the tender of the constituent fertilizer group in the year 2003 due to the change in the bidding conditions.

However, a new business operator shall distribute a certain quantity to B, and for the remaining quantity, the existing Si

Since the plaintiff was awarded a successful bid by allocating shares to the plaintiff, the price competition is avoided and the existing time is avoided.

It is difficult to deem that the agreement of the business operators who intend to maintain the share is essentially different; 4.

In full view of the fact that there is no change in the rate, 21 - 17 - 17 fertilizer group among the collaborative acts of this case.

Since the agreement on the component fertilizer group cannot be deemed to have been severedd in 2003, this part of the Plaintiff’s objection

Sectoral argument is without merit.

C. Whether the Plaintiff was granted the status of voluntary reporters with respect to salting glass

1) The plaintiff's assertion

The relevant market is distinguished for each non-Class and a separate collaborative act is established accordingly, and salt is among them;

The status of those who have filed a voluntary report as the plaintiff provided evidence in the first order with respect to the portion of Gauri.

must be recognized.

2) Facts of recognition

The Agricultural Cooperatives Federation prior to 1996, as imported fertilizers not produced in Korea;

The tender-related work, such as the determination of expected volume of purchase, was performed, but from the supply in 1996

The AFFF shall have determined the expected volume of purchase and the estimated price of purchase for the following year and shall trade in the AFF.

It was conducted by means of consignment purchase that allows us to conclude a contract through bidding. The Plaintiff and the Plaintiff

○○ is salted at the rate of Plaintiff 60% from the tender in 1999 to the tender in 2007, and the Kenya○ 40% from the tender in 2007.

The agreement was reached on the distribution of the quantity of tender, set a reasonable bid price, and implemented the agreement. 9)

Meanwhile, the defendant continuously supervised the sales prices, etc. of products by manufacturers and sellers of chemical fertilizers.

After June 8, 2010, the investigation was commenced on June 8, 2010, and B, on June 8, 2010: 48, "B" from November 1, 1994 to October 201, 2010.

6. By no later than the end, the fact that each agreement on bidding for the purchase of chemical fertilizers by the National Agricultural Cooperatives Federation and the tobacco cooperatives was reached.

D. On June 8, 2010, the Plaintiff also submitted relevant documents. The above facts in the second order around 20:20.

B. The Defendant made a statement and submitted relevant data, and accordingly, the Defendant did not appear as seen earlier.

As to the penalty surcharge reduction, the penalty surcharge was imposed.

Each entry, the purport of the whole pleadings

3) Determination

The purpose and purpose of the voluntary report reduction and exemption system and business entities participating in unfair collaborative acts voluntarily;

(2) On the grounds that evidence has been provided by reporting or cooperating with an investigation of an unfair collaborative act

The suspension of unfair collaborative acts by undermining the trust among participating enterprisers by granting benefits;

the reduction or exemption as a voluntary reporter or an investigative partner in consideration of the fact that it is intended to prevent such a violation;

In making a decision on whether it constitutes a prize and on the order of reduction or exemption, the relevant business operator is unfair;

It should be based on the degree of contribution to the possibility of detection of one collaborative act.

In light of these legal principles, as seen earlier, the instant collaborative act is a whole.

A voluntary reporter should be considered as a single collaborative act conducted in the school expenses bid market.

2 'B' of the collaborative act of this case as a result of the determination.

The participation in all non-competitive tenderings except for Li and bean fertilizers, and the subject of the disposition of this case was before the disposition of this case

The documents relating to the delayed period were first submitted to the defendant, and accordingly the defendant shall be the defendant.

B Even if there was no voluntary report, only the investigation into the materials and related persons in connection with the 'B' shall be incorporated into the 'B' portion

in full view of all the circumstances, such as the fact that it appears to have been able to prove the facts of this case

It seems that only the part of the act of dyeyl chloride is separately recognized to the Plaintiff as the first voluntary reporter.

It is difficult to file a voluntary report, and the penalty has already been mitigated by recognizing the status of the voluntary report for each non-party;

In addition, exemption from the total amount of penalty surcharge is not consistent with the purpose of the above system, so this part of the plaintiff

Sectoral assertion is without merit.

D. Whether the calculation of related sales is lawful

1) The plaintiff's assertion

① The essence of the collaborative act in this case is not the total bid documentation, but the "price collusion" or "market division collusion".

as a result of a difference between the bid price and the contract quantity due to the high-free contracting system, the bid collusion is required.

applicable contract amount, not "the actual sales", but "the actual sales", shall be deemed "the relevant sales", and ii)

21-17 - The plaintiff alone, such as love (21 - 9 - 10) among the fertilizer group, new generation (22 - 12 - 12 - 12), etc.

The non-participating species are excluded from the relevant sales because they are not the related goods affected by the agreement.

(3) substantial causes, such as the cost of promoting the improvement of logistics, direct handling subsidy, reservation subsidy, soil analysis subsidy, etc.

for the discount of sales, the sales should be deducted from the relevant sales.

2) Determination

Article 22 of the Fair Trade Act provides that if there is a violation of Article 19(1) of the Fair Trade Act, the defendant is the party.

It shall not exceed the amount calculated by multiplying the turnover determined by the Presidential Decree by 10/100.

Article 9 of the Enforcement Decree of the Fair Trade Act provides that penalty surcharges may be imposed within the extent of not being imposed.
