2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful
A. The plaintiff's assertion

(b) Related statutes;
It is as shown in the attached Form.
C. Determination
(1) Under Article 69 of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act and Article 66 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 21307 of Feb. 4, 2009), in order for the instant farmland to be subject to the reduction or exemption of capital gains tax, the Plaintiff shall directly cultivate, namely, engaging in cultivating crops or growing perennial plants, or cultivate or cultivate them with his own labor, while residing in the Si/Gun/Gu where the instant farmland is located for not less than eight years after the Plaintiff acquired the instant farmland, or in the Si/Gun/Gu adjacent thereto or within 20 km in a straight line from the said farmland, or from the said farmland, within a Si/Gun/Gu where the instant farmland is located.
(2) 살피건대, 갑 제8, 11호증, 갑 제13호증의1, 2의 각 기재에 변론 전체의 취지를 더하여 인정되는 다음과 같은 사정들, 즉 ① 원고는 이 사건 농지의 보유기간 동안에 QQ 주식회사, 주식회사 RR의 각 대표이사로, 주식회사 SS, TT 주식회사의 각 전무이사로 재직한 점,② 특히 원고가 전무이사 로 재직한 주식회사 RR, SS 주식회사는 연간 매출액이 적지 아니할 뿐만 아니라 원고는 위 회사로부터 연간 평균 000원 이상의 급여를 수령한 점, ③ 원고가 위 회사의 임원이었던 관계로 시간을 자유롭게 사용할 수 있었으므로 이 사건 농지를 자경하는데 아무런 지장이 없었다는 원고의 주장은 위와 같은 급여 수령사실에 비추어 볼 때 경험칙상 쉽게 수긍하기 어려운 점,④ 더 나아가 원고는 이 사건 농지의 보유기간 동안 총 70회에 걸쳐 해외출장을 다녔던 점,⑤특히 원고가 SSS 주식회사의 전무로 근무하게 된 2007년부터 해외출장의 횟수가 크게 증가하여 2007년 16회, 2008년 17회의 해외출장을 다녔던 점,⑥ 원고가 이 사건 농지의 자경과 관련된 객관적인 근거자료를 제시하지 못하고 있는 점 등에 비추어 볼 때 갑 제1 내지 7호증(가지번호 포함)의 각 기재와 증인 정UU, 김VV의 각 증언만으로는 원고가 8년이상 이 사건 농지를 자경하였다고 인정하기에 부족하고(인근 주민의 진술이나 확인서등에 의하여 자경 사실을 증명하고자 하는 때에는 그 진술의 내용이 경작 방법, 작업의 내용과 주체, 작업의 빈도 등 자경 사실 자체를 명백히 뒷받침할 수 있는 구체적인 사실을 포함하고 있는 것이어야 하고 그러한 구체적인 사실의 적시가 없이 막연히 자경한 것이 맞다는 취지의 결론을 언급하는 정도만으로는 자경 사실을 뒷받침하는 독립 적인 증거가 된다고 보기 어렵다), 달리 이를 인정할 만한 증거가 없다.
(3) Therefore, the instant disposition is lawful, and the Plaintiff’s assertion against this is not accepted.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
