Text

1. The instant lawsuit shall be dismissed.

2. The costs of the lawsuit are assessed against the defendant.

The disposition of imposition of capital gains tax of KRW 155,150,450 on April 23, 2012 by the defendant of the Gu office against the plaintiff on April 23, 2012 shall be revoked.

Reasons

If an administrative disposition is revoked, the disposition becomes null and void, and no longer exists, and a lawsuit seeking revocation against non-existent administrative disposition is unlawful as there is no benefit of lawsuit (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2004Du5317, Sept. 28, 2006). However, the Defendant’s revocation ex officio of the disposition imposing capital gains tax stated in the purport of the claim that the Plaintiff seeks revocation while the lawsuit is pending is apparent by the respective descriptions and arguments of evidence Nos. 1 and 3, and thus, the lawsuit of this case is extinguished and the lawsuit of this case is seeking revocation of the disposition without any benefit of lawsuit,

Therefore, the lawsuit of this case shall be dismissed, and the litigation cost shall be borne by the defendant pursuant to Article 32 of the Administrative Litigation Act.
