Reasons

The grounds of appeal by the defendant litigant are examined.

A person who supplies goods or services independently from a person liable to pay value-added tax under Article 2 (1) of the Value-Added Tax Act refers to a person who supplies goods or services in the form of a business to an extent that may create a value-added and who continues to provide such services with a continuous and repeated intention (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 84Nu629, Dec. 26, 1984; 89Nu2646, Feb. 27, 1990). Here, the continuous and repeated supply of goods or services means that the continuous supply of goods or services is repeated several times, and it cannot be said that the person has continuously intended to provide services even in the case of providing services with an intention to supply services at a single time required for time.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed and all costs of appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
