B.

In applying the provisions of paragraph (2), the area directly used by the relevant corporation for business shall be the area when the relevant corporation is the smaller of the area directly used for

3. Plaintiff’s assertion and judgment

A. Whether Article 42-2 of the former Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act is unconstitutional

(1) The plaintiff's assertion

Article 42-2 of the former Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act (amended by Act No. 4165, Dec. 30, 1989; Act No. 4666, Dec. 31, 1993; Act No. 4666, Dec. 31, 1993; Act No. 4266) applied by the Defendant provides that corporate tax and special surtax shall be exempted on any income accruing from the transfer of the site and buildings of the headquarters or principal office to relocate the headquarters or principal office to an area outside the Seoul Metropolitan area, and delegates in blank to the Presidential Decree on the existence and scope of liability to pay corporate tax and special surtax, as prescribed by the Presidential Decree, by prescribing that all citizens shall have the duty to pay taxes

Articles 38 and 59 of the Constitution provide that "The items and rates of taxes shall be determined by law," and the President may issue Presidential Decrees concerning the matters delegated by law, with the specific scope specified by law," are unconstitutional because they violate Article 75 of the Constitution."

In light of the above, the principle of no taxation without law adopted in Articles 38 and 59 of the Constitution refers to the requirements and procedures for the exercise of tax rights, such as taxation requirements and collection procedures, which are all stipulated by law enacted by the National Assembly, which is the representative body of the people. However, it is not possible to delegate the matters concerning taxation requirements and collection procedures to subordinate laws and regulations such as the order, rules, etc. However, if such matters are delegated to subordinate laws and regulations, only specific and individual delegation shall be allowed, and comprehensive and white land delegation shall not be permitted (tax-requirements statutory delegation), and the provisions of such laws, orders, rules, and regulations must be one-time and clear (tax-requirements clearness principle). The delegation of laws must be done with regard to specific and individual limited matters, and the specificness of the law should not be determined comprehensively, and the degree of such specification changes depending on the type and nature of the regulated object. Therefore, in the area such as corporate tax and special surtax, the scope of the reduction or exemption of the basic rights is somewhat weak, and the scope of the restriction of corporate tax and special surtax should be weak.

Article 42-2 of the former Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act seems to have been delegated to the Presidential Decree on the existence or scope of corporate tax and special surtax exempted under paragraph (1). Meanwhile, if a corporation exempted from corporate tax, etc. under paragraph (2) of the same Article falls under any of the following subparagraphs, it shall be regulated bypassing the existence or scope of corporate tax and special surtax exempted by listed in subparagraphs 1 through 5, and the provisions of paragraph (4) of the same Article shall apply to the case of submission of tax reduction and exemption, etc. under the conditions as prescribed by the Presidential Decree. In light of the whole, Article 42-2 of the former Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act provides for the specific scope of the existence or scope of corporate tax and special surtax exempted and special surtax and the procedure of exemption and delegates it to the Presidential Decree, which is a subordinate law. Thus, Article 42-2 of the former Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act cannot be deemed to violate the substantial principle of no taxation without law and the limit of delegated legislation under Article 38, 59 or 75 of the Constitution.

(1) The plaintiff's assertion

Article 36-2 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act applied by the defendant provides that "the area used directly by the corporation for business purposes" shall be "the area used directly by the corporation concerned for two years retroactively from the date of transfer", and "the area used directly for business purposes" shall be defined as "the area used directly by the corporation at the time when the corporation is smaller than the size used directly for business purposes". The determination is made in violation of Articles 23 and 59 of the Constitution to guarantee people's property rights and to prevent arbitrary taxation, such as violation of the universality principle, the principle of excessive prohibition, and the principle of response burden."

The legislative intent of Article 42-2 of the former Regulation of Tax Reduction and Exemption Act is to promote balanced regional development by promoting the relocation of the head office to an area outside the Seoul Metropolitan area, and to support the relocation of the head office so that the corporation transferring the site and building of the former head office can continue to operate the business even after the relocation of the head office by granting tax reduction or exemption benefits to the corporation which transfers the site and building of the head office in order to move the head office in the Seoul Metropolitan area. Therefore, it is reasonable that the scope of such tax reduction or exemption benefits should be commensurate with the economic and social interests that the corporation should maintain the head office in the Seoul Metropolitan area, and it is reasonable that the corporation should comply with the ratio of the area of the head office and the area directly used by the corporation for the business, because it is possible to change the area "the area directly used for the business" according to the situation and intention of the corporation in question, so it is not likely that it would violate the principle of tax equality, such as real estate speculation, and therefore, it seems that the corporation directly used the parking lot for the purpose of tax reduction or exemption.

(1) The plaintiff's assertion

Although the Plaintiff used the instant parking lot building exclusively in the exclusive and exclusive position as a warehouse, the Defendant imposed the instant disposition on the premise that the instant parking lot building was not used directly by the Plaintiff and the lessee of the instant building, and thus, the instant disposition was unlawful.

(3) Determination

If the Plaintiff used the instant parking lot building for an illegal exclusive use as mentioned above, it should be corrected at any time as the object of the corrective order, so it is difficult to use it for business purposes even in such a case.

Therefore, the Plaintiff cannot be deemed to have used the instant parking lot building directly for business purposes from August 1, 1991 to November 23, 1992, which is the date of transfer. Therefore, the Defendant’s disposition of this case that deemed that the Plaintiff did not directly use the instant parking lot building for business purposes is lawful, and the Plaintiff’s above assertion is without merit.

4. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case seeking its revocation is unlawful, and it is dismissed, and the costs of lawsuit are assessed against the losing plaintiff. It is so decided as per Disposition.
