2. The costs of lawsuit shall be borne by the Plaintiff.

Purport of claim

The imposition of capital gains tax of KRW 15,567,00, resident tax of KRW 1,556,710, which the Defendant notified to the Plaintiff on April 12, 2006 by the Defendant, shall be revoked.

Reasons

1. Details of the disposition;

A. On February 13, 1978, the Plaintiff acquired the instant land jointly with ○○○○, ○○○, ○○○, ○○○-do, 135-6 Forest land (hereinafter “instant land”). On February 22, 1990, the Plaintiff donated 1/2 shares of ○○○, ○○, ○○, on March 2, 2005, transferred the instant land to ○○, ○○, ○○, ○○, ○○, but on March 31, 2005, applied for reduction or exemption of capital gains tax on the ground that the instant land falls under one’s own farmland for at least eight years.

B. On April 12, 2006, the Defendant rendered the instant disposition imposing capital gains tax of 15,567,150 won, resident tax of 2005, and 1,556,710 won on the Plaintiff on the ground that the Plaintiff did not constitute one of its own farmland for not less than eight years, and thus, it does not constitute an exemption from capital gains tax under Article 69(1) of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act.

[Ground for recognition] Unsatisfy

2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful

A. The assertion

The plaintiff asserts that the land of this case is subject to exemption from capital gains tax pursuant to Article 69 of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act because the land category of this case is forest land, but it is virtually corresponding to farmland because it is a night tree orchard. Since the plaintiff has done so for more than eight years, the transfer of the land of this case is subject to exemption from capital gains tax pursuant to Article 69 of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act. The defendant asserts that the plaintiff did not fall under the above exemption since the plaintiff did not own the land of this case while working

C. Determination

Article 69 of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, Article 66 of the Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, and Article 27 of the Enforcement Rule of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act for 8 years or longer mean that a resident has cultivated farmland for 8 years or longer between the time he/she acquired farmland while residing in an area within a Si/Gun/Gu where the farmland is located or adjacent thereto and the time he/she acquired it from the time he/she acquired it, and that it is confirmed as of the date of transfer. The purpose of the exemption provision of capital gains tax on self-arable farmland is to provide support for policies to prevent the decline of rural population and to foster agriculture by allowing a person engaged in agriculture to engage in long-term agriculture by exempting transfer income tax, etc. for 8 years or longer, so that he/she may be engaged in agriculture for the purpose of tax imposition. "The land directly cultivated" under Article 69 (1) of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act means that he/she directly cultivates, dry field, tending, grow, and harvest it, but it also includes a self-employed farmer who directly or indirectly engaged in agriculture under 97.

According to the facts of this case, the plaintiff's ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○’s testimony (except for the portion which is not believed later) was located in the ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○, but the plaintiff was living in the 190s, on January 11, 1994, at the ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○, ○○○○○○○, 465-5, which was located in the 6th night time on the 6th night time on the 195’s land. On the 196th night time on the 4th night time on the 6th night time on the 4th night time on the 195’s land. The plaintiff had no value of the above ○○○○○○○, which was located in the 6th night time on the 6th night time on the land.

Therefore, in light of the above facts and the purport of the relevant laws, the Plaintiff cannot be exempted from capital gains tax pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations on the transfer of the instant land.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
