B. Relevant statutes

It is as stated in the "Attached Acts and subordinate statutes".

1) Requirements for reduction of capital gains tax under the Restriction of Special Taxation Act

Article 69(1) of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act provides that "The tax amount equivalent to 100/100 of capital gains tax shall be reduced or exempted for the income accruing from the transfer of land prescribed by the Presidential Decree among the land which is subject to the agricultural income tax, which is cultivated directly by a resident prescribed by the Presidential Decree who resides in the seat of farmland for not less than eight years." Article 66(12) of the Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 19329 of Feb. 9, 2006 and amended by Presidential Decree No. 21307 of Feb. 4, 2009) provides that "the direct cultivation" in Article 69(1) of the Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act means that a resident is engaged in the cultivation of agricultural products or perennial plants in his/her own farmland, or is cultivated or cultivated with his/her own labor by not less than 1/2 of the cultivation or perennial plants."

A) According to Gap evidence Nos. 4, 8, 12, and evidence Nos. 17-1 and 2, the plaintiff succeeded to the farmland of this case: (1) the plaintiff transferred his resident registration to "Seoul FF-Gu GGdong," which was adjacent to the farmland of this case on October 1, 1979, and registered as a resident until the farmland of this case is expropriated; (2) the plaintiff and HaH jointly cultivated the farmland of this case from October 1, 1979 to April 9, 1984; and (3) this is recognized as having been reduced or exempted by the director of the tax office after acquiring the farmland of this case as a public land for consultation on December 19, 206.

나) 그러나 을 제3, 5, 6호증의 각 기재에 변론 전체의 취지를 종합하면, ① 이HH는 서울 KK구에 거주하다가, 1972. 9. 14. 서울 LL구로 전입신고를 하였고, 1988. 4. 26.에 이르러서야 서울 FF구로 전입신고를 한 사실, ② 이HH는 1967. 7. 15. MM중학교 교사로 임용되어 1999. 8. 31.까지 MM상업고등학교, NN고등학교, PPPP실업고등학교, NN상업고등학교, QQQ상업고등학교, ZZ상업고등학교, ZZ정보산업고등학교에서 교사로 근무하였던 사실, ③ 양도소득세가 감면된 322 토지는 원래 이DD이 1962. 4. 11.일 취득하였던 것인데 그 사망 당시 이마 양도소득세 감면을 위한 전제인 직접 경작 8년이 경과된 사실이 인정된다.

C) In light of the fact that: (a) during the period in which the Plaintiff asserted that he jointly cultivated the farmland in this case and that he resided in Seoul LL Gu; (b) worked as a teacher of a middle school for about 32 years, it is difficult to readily accept the assertion that he cultivated real estate including the farmland in this case; (c) the head of the Seoul FF Tax Office received an application for reduction or exemption of capital gains tax on the land 322 from such circumstances; (b) it is difficult to deem that the Plaintiff was a decision on reduction or exemption on the premise that the heir had satisfied the requirements for self-sufficiency with respect to the land for at least eight years prior to the death of D; and (c) it is difficult to deem that the Plaintiff was a decision on the premise that H was self-sufficiency; and (d) it is difficult to deem that the Plaintiff was a person employed and cultivated jointly with H under his responsibility and calculation.

3) Whether the period for which the tenant occupied without permission is included in the period of direct cultivation

A) According to Gap evidence No. 13, May 10, 2001, the plaintiff leased the term of the contract of the farmland of this case as a flower farmer from May 10, 2001 to May 9, 2003, but did not deliver it even after the expiration of the contract period. The plaintiff filed a lawsuit against the tenant of the farmland of this case and his husband (2003da462965) to the Seoul Central District Court and filed a favorable judgment on August 19, 2004.

B) However, the Plaintiff’s lease of the instant farmland did not directly cultivate the wind that could not be returned after the expiry of the lease period, and thus does not constitute the period of direct cultivation.

3. Conclusion

The plaintiff's appeal is dismissed.
