[Reasons for Recognition] Evidence No. 2, Evidence No. 6, Evidence No. 7, Evidence No. 1 through 7, Evidence No. 3, Evidence No. 6, Evidence No. 7, Evidence No. 8-1 through 6, and the purport of the whole pleadings
D. Determination
1) Whether a title trust was made
A) The provision on deemed donation under Article 41-2(1) of the Act shall apply where, in property requiring a registration for the transfer or exercise of rights, etc., the actual owner and the nominal owner enter into an agreement or communication, and thus, registration, etc. has been made in the future of the nominal owner, regardless of the intent of the nominal owner. In such a case, the tax authority may not apply where it unilaterally proves that the actual owner is different from the nominal owner, and where it proves that the registration, etc. of the nominal owner was made in the unilateral act of the actual owner regardless of the intent of the nominal owner, the nominal owner who asserts such act should be the nominal owner (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2007Du
B) In light of the above legal principles, the following circumstances that can be examined by the above facts of recognition: (i) according to the Plaintiff’s assertion, (ii) borrowed money from the Plaintiff, etc. with close relatives, etc., or (iii) took over the shares of this case under the name of the Plaintiff as collateral against extremely, considering the frequent possibility of having the Plaintiff offer his or her property as collateral; (iv) there is no reason to notify the Plaintiff of such fact; and (ii) the Plaintiff continued to work as an agent for the instant company from the time of the establishment of the instant company to the time of the company’s incorporation, and did not take any follow-up measures, such as criminal complaint, against ○ after the disposition of this case, there is insufficient evidence to acknowledge that ○ was unilaterally taking over the shares of this case in the name of the Plaintiff regardless of the Plaintiff’s intent, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge this otherwise.
C) Therefore, this part of the Plaintiff’s assertion is without merit.
2) Whether there was an objective of tax avoidance or not
A) The legislative purport of Article 41-2(1) of the Act is to effectively prevent the act of tax avoidance using the title trust system and realize the tax justice. As such, the proviso of the same Article can be applied only if the purpose of tax avoidance is not included in the purpose of title trust, and in this case, it may be proven by means of proving that there was a purpose of tax avoidance other than the purpose of tax avoidance. However, the nominal owner who bears the burden of proof has a clear and unrelated purpose with the tax avoidance to the extent that it is recognized that there was no purpose of tax avoidance in the title trust, and that there was no tax avoidance at the time of the title trust or there was no tax avoidance at the time of the title trust (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2004Du11220, Sept. 22, 2006).
B) In light of the aforementioned legal principles, the Plaintiff asserted that the Plaintiff acquired the instant shares in the name of the Plaintiff to meet the requirements of promoters required in the Commercial Act when establishing the instant company, namely, (i) the Plaintiff had made a statement regarding the process of acquiring the instant shares in the name of the Plaintiff, etc. at the time of the tax investigation prior to the instant disposition; (ii) there was no statement consistent with the Plaintiff’s assertion as above; (iii) even though the Plaintiff’s two or more promoters and shareholders have to continue to maintain until the instant company was incorporated, the requirements of promoters were mitigated by the amendment of the Commercial Act on July 24, 201, and there was no difference between the Plaintiff’s global income tax and the amount of global income tax at the time of the instant company’s incorporation and the amount of global income tax at the time of the instant transfer of shares, which would have been difficult to be readily concluded that the Plaintiff did not have any other evidence to acknowledge the global income tax evasion rate than the amount of global income tax at the time of the instant transfer of shares (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 20000Du3).
C) Therefore, other Plaintiff’s assertion on this part is without merit.
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.
