D. Determination

(1) The burden of proving that the tax invoice is false, in principle, to the defendant who is the tax authority, and the defendant must prove that the tax invoice is not accompanied by real transactions on the basis of direct evidence or all the circumstances. If the defendant proves that the tax invoice is not false and that it is not accompanied by real transactions, it is necessary to prove that it is consistent with his/her own assertion in light of the position that it is easy to present evidence and materials related to the plaintiff who is the taxpayer who disputes the illegality of the defendant's disposition, by asserting that the tax invoice is not false (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 96Nu8192, Sept. 26, 1997).

(2) According to the above facts, it appears that 00 juice did not actually trade real assets, and in particular, it appears that 2003 juice purchase portion appears to have been processed, it is reasonable and acceptable to view that the tax invoice of this case is false that it is not accompanied by real transactions. Therefore, the Plaintiff should prove that the tax invoice of this case was supplied normally from 0 juice. In general, even in case of material and processing transactions, the Plaintiff should prove that the purchase price was first deposited from 0 juice in order to pretend the issuance of the tax invoice to be actual transactions, the remainder after deducting some fees would be remitted to 0 juice, and the remaining amount after deducting the commission from 0 juice would be returned to 0 juice. In particular, it cannot be concluded that the Plaintiff's purchase price was a real transaction without being issued a false credit card purchaser's purchase price or a new credit card purchaser's purchase price to 20 juice because it is in the form of cash again.

In light of the fact that credit card users who traded with the Plaintiff did not respond properly to the confirmation of the Defendant’s fact of transaction or did not contact (Evidence No. 2), etc., each entry in the evidence Nos. 9 and 10, which corresponds to the Plaintiff’s assertion, is not believed, and the Plaintiff deposited the price on the tax invoice of this case (Evidence No. 5-1 through 4, No. 12), or the Plaintiff sold credit card transactions (Evidence No. 8-1 through No. 12) corresponding to the amount on the tax invoice of this case at the time of January 2003, or there is no other evidence to acknowledge that the transaction of this case constitutes real transaction on the tax invoice of this case by itself, as stated in the evidence No. 7-1 through 6, and No. 11-1 and No. 2 submitted by the Plaintiff.

Therefore, the instant disposition that deemed the instant tax invoice as the processed tax invoice is lawful, and the Plaintiff’s assertion disputing this is not acceptable.

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.
