명의위장 사실을 알지 못한 데에 과실이 없다고 할 수 없음[일부패소]

Case Number of the immediately preceding lawsuit

Ulsan District Court-2015-Guhap6440 (2017.09.07)

Title

No negligence shall be deemed to have been committed on the ground that he/she was unaware of the name.

Summary

In reality, it is true that a number of non-data transactions take place in high-speed transactions, and that a business registration certificate issued by a trader in the supply of goods is essential for the handling of tax invoice business. Therefore, it cannot be said that there was no negligence on the part of the trader due to the mere fact that the transaction partner obtained the business registration certificate and confirmed the transaction price or deposited the transaction price into the account of the other party

In addition to the last 6th 8th part of the judgment of the court of first instance, "the supply of goods subject to value-added tax" refers to the delivery or transfer of goods according to all contractual or legal causes (Article 9(1) of the Value-Added Tax Act), which is premised on a change in real rights. Therefore, in the case of the entrustment of goods as in this case, the truster's taking out of the goods to the trustee does not constitute the supply of goods (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 85Nu286, Sept. 24, 1985). Thus, the truster's taking out of the goods to the trustee is not the supply of goods (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 85Nu286, Sept. 24, 1985).

B. Parts used for repair;

(1) The part concerning the transaction with B(2) of the first instance court's 7th day and 13th day and below) shall be as described below.

An input tax amount shall not be deducted or refunded by a supplier and a supplier on the tax invoice, unless there are special circumstances that the person who received the tax invoice did not know that he/she was the nominal owner of the tax invoice and that the person who received the tax invoice was not negligent in not knowing the nominal owner of the tax invoice (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2002Du2277, Jun. 28, 2002).

According to the evidence Nos. 19-1 and 2-2, thisCC was convicted of the fact that the BB industry was issued a false tax invoice in the name of the BB industry although it was not a actual operator of the BB industry in collusion with the Plaintiff, and the judgment became final and conclusive. Thus, the tax invoice in the name of the BB industry issued by the Plaintiff is another tax invoice in the name of the actual supplier and the supplier on the tax invoice, unless there are special circumstances that the Plaintiff was negligent in not knowing the fact that the Plaintiff was unaware of the name of the tax invoice, and that there was no negligence on the part of the actual supplier and the supplier on the tax invoice.

Therefore, as to whether the Plaintiff was unaware of the name of the tax invoice and was negligent, the following facts are acknowledged according to each of the statements in the Health Team, Gap evidence Nos. 18 through 36, Eul evidence Nos. 10, 18, 22, and 23 (including each number).

① As the Plaintiff’s representative director, the Kim E-E, who is in fact in charge of the Plaintiff Company, stated that thisCC was investigated by an investigative agency on the violation of the Punishment of Tax Evaders Act and was trading in the name of BB industry with the knowledge that it was an employee of the BB industry. However, on the other hand, KimE reported thisCC as if it was an employee of the Plaintiff Company and false labor expenditure in order to avoid imposing corporate tax on the Plaintiff.

② The KimE stated that, in the course of tax investigation, there is a need to urgently seek materials to meet the short time limit that the transaction partner requires, and that, in order to maintain the transaction partner, they would not sell the materials.

③ The Plaintiff asserted that it was made in the course of transaction with BB industry and submitted a majority of the specifications of transaction with the Plaintiff Company’s order and BB industry. However, the above documents do not infash the use of facsimile that recognized that it was used in the course of investigation (the transaction statement made in the name of B industry does not include the telephone number, facsimile number, etc. of BB industry) and there is no signature or seal of the person in charge of BB industry or the person in charge of the transaction, which may be recognized that the above transaction statement was made by B industry.

④ In addition to the issuance of the business registration certificate, KimE did not make any effort to verify whether the BB industry is a genuine high-speed sales business entity, and whether thisCC is an employee of the BB industry, and even in ordering the goods, it used thisCC’s mobile phone. (EE stated at the time of the investigation that it was ordered by using BB office telephone at the time of the investigation, but the phone number of the BB industry used by KimE is entirely different from the phone number of the BB industry as identified in the integrated national tax integration network, and there is no other confirmation that it was a telephone number of the B industry).

Comprehensively taking account of these facts, the Plaintiff appears to have known that thisCC was making a transaction by lending the name of BB industry. Even if it was unaware of such fact, as recognized in the course of the investigation by KimE, it is true that many of the transaction without data was made in the scrap metal transaction. However, in the transaction of goods, it is essential to carry out tax invoice-related business affairs. Therefore, the Plaintiff cannot be said to have been negligent on the ground that the Plaintiff obtained the business registration certificate of BB industry from thisCC and confirmed it or deposited the transaction price into the account of BB industry.

Therefore, this part of the plaintiff's assertion is without merit.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the defendant's imposition of value-added tax of KRW 10,856,198 for the second period of 2010 for the plaintiff on October 1, 2013, the imposition of value-added tax of KRW 124,694,610 for the second period of 201, the imposition of value-added tax of KRW 144,20,151 for the second period of 201, and the imposition of value-added tax of KRW 163,89,970 for the second period of 2012, the amount exceeding KRW 148,629,532 for the imposition of value-added tax of KRW 163,89,970 for the second period of 2012 shall be revoked, respectively. Thus, the plaintiff's claim shall be accepted within the above scope

Therefore, the part against the defendant who was partially accepted the defendant's appeal and revoked in excess of the above disposition among the judgment of the court of first instance shall be revoked, and the plaintiff's claim corresponding to the revoked part shall be dismissed, and the remaining appeal by the defendant shall be dismissed
