[Ground of recognition] Facts without dispute, Gap 1-3, 7 evidence, Eul 3-13 evidence (including each number), part of witness ○○○'s testimony, the purport of the whole pleadings

D. Determination

(1) Whether a title trust was made

The provisions on constructive gift of paragraph (1) of this Article, etc. shall apply where, in property requiring a registration for the transfer or exercise of the right, the actual owner and the nominal owner enter into an agreement or communication, and thus, registration, etc. is unilaterally made in the name of the nominal owner regardless of the intent of the nominal owner. In such a case, the tax authority may only prove that the actual owner is different from the nominal owner, and the tax authority shall prove that the registration, etc. of the nominal owner was made in the unilateral act of the real owner regardless of the intent of the nominal owner (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2007Du15780, Feb. 14, 20

In light of the following circumstances, it is difficult to readily believe that the Plaintiff, etc. did not notify the Plaintiff, etc. of the fact that the Plaintiff borrowed money or received collateral from the Plaintiff or the Plaintiff, etc. in the name of the Plaintiff, etc. on the ground that it was not easy to believe that the Plaintiff was registered as an auditor since the incorporation of the instant company, and ○○○ and ○○○ that was registered as a shareholder of the instant company other than the Plaintiff, worked as an agent and a head of the instant company from the time of new stocks acquisition until the time of new stocks acquisition, and the Plaintiff did not take any follow-up measures, such as filing a complaint, against the Plaintiff even after the instant disposition was taken. In light of the above, it is insufficient to recognize that ○○○ unilaterally, regardless of the Plaintiff’s intent, solely based on the evidence submitted by the Plaintiff, did not recognize that ○○ completed the transfer of ownership in the name of the Plaintiff as to the instant stocks in the name of the Plaintiff.

ii)whether there has been any objective of evading taxes;

Paragraph (1), etc. recognizes an exception to the principle of substantial taxation by effectively preventing the act of tax avoidance using the degree of nominal trust and realizing the tax justice. Thus, if the title trust was recognized to have been made for any reason other than the purpose of tax avoidance and only the reduction of minor taxes incidental to such title trust takes place, it cannot be deemed that there was the purpose of tax avoidance stipulated in the proviso of the same Article in such title trust. In this case, the burden of proving that there was no purpose of tax avoidance exists the burden of proving that there was no purpose of tax avoidance (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2004Du7733, May 12, 2006). However, the burden of proving that there was no purpose of tax avoidance, other than the purpose of tax avoidance, can be proven by the method of proving that there was no other purpose of tax avoidance (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2004Du7733, May 12, 2006).

As to the instant case, the Ministry of Health and Welfare alleged that ○○○○ was to acquire shares in the Plaintiff’s name in order to satisfy the requirements of promoters in establishing the instant company. However, this is not only a new assertion made in this law but also difficult to believe that there was a statement made at the time of tax investigation. ○○ does not require three promoters to be a shareholder, or there was no objection to the incorporation of the instant company. Although ○○○ did not have to be different from the promoters, it does not require three promoters to acquire the instant shares in the Plaintiff’s name until the date of the establishment of the instant company, the requirements were mitigated by the amendment of the Commercial Act. In addition, ○○○ refused the acquisition of new shares at the time of offering new shares by capital increase of ○○ upon the instant company, and ○○○○ did not have any specific purpose to establish the Plaintiff’s global income tax evasion rate in the name of ○○○○○ company’s global income tax evasion rate, the Plaintiff’s global income tax evasion rate did not necessarily have to have any effect on the Plaintiff’s global income tax evasion rate.

(3) Sub-decisions

Therefore, the instant disposition pursuant to the deemed donation provision under Paragraph (1) is lawful.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case is justified and it is decided as per Disposition by admitting it.
