Case Number of the previous trial

Cho High 2012 Mine1232 (Law No. 11. 2012)

Title

No secondary tax liability shall be imposed on the general partner in form.

Summary

Although the plaintiffs are registered as members of the non-party corporation, they were registered as members of the non-party corporation in the form of a non-party corporation rather than in a position to actually participate in the operation of the non-party corporation with unlimited liability. Thus, the instant disposition imposing secondary tax liability on the plaintiffs is unlawful as it violates the principle of substantial taxation.

On the other hand, Article 39(1)1 of the Framework Act on National Taxes aims to impose the secondary liability for payment on the general partners of the corporation under Article 39(1)1 of the Framework Act on National Taxes.

Thus, the above plaintiffs' labor relations cannot be deemed to have invested in the non-party 1 or the non-party 2 corporation, and the non-party 2 and the non-party 21 and the non-party 21 and the non-party 20 were also listed in the corporate registry register, and the non-party 1 and its branch.
