Notes
The appeal is dismissed.
The costs of appeal are assessed against the plaintiff.
Due to this reason
We examine the grounds of appeal.
1. The court below is just in holding that even if the parties to the donation contract cancel the agreement on the gift contract after the party's taxation claim was created after the party to the donation contract was able to levy gift tax by acquiring the property through the implementation of the donation contract on the grounds that the original judgment on the instant case was reversed, it cannot affect the national taxation claim already occurred, and there is no error in the misapprehension of legal principles as to the rescission of the agreement, such as theory
The precedent cited by the theory of the lawsuit is different from the case, and it is not appropriate to this case.
2. In the case of a donation of land, the time of acquisition of the property by donation under the Inheritance Tax Act shall be deemed to be the time when the registration of ownership transfer has been completed, barring any special circumstance (see Supreme Court Decision 84Nu783, Nov. 12, 1985). Thus, the court below is just in holding the time of acquisition of the real property of this case as of December 31, 1983, which is the day before its registration, and there is no error in the misapprehension of legal principles as to the time of acquisition of donated property, such
3. According to the reasoning of the judgment below, the court below held that since no data was found to know the market price of the real estate of this case as of March 17, 1986, which was at the time of taxation, as well as December 31, 1983, which was the time of donation of the real estate of this case, the court below determined that the value of the real estate of this case was calculated by the rate method determined by the Commissioner of the National Tax Service as of the time of taxation according to Article 5(2)1
However, the above determination by the court below is based on the theory that the court below committed an error of proving the value of donated property before the burden of proof was committed, as pointed out, since the appraisal of donated property by the method as provided in Article 5 (2) of the Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 12038 of Dec. 31, 1986) was a supplementary method that can be selected only when it is difficult to calculate the market price according to the current status at the time of donation or the market price at the time of imposition of gift tax, and the burden of proving that there was no supplementary method of appraisal as it is difficult to compute the time of donation is the defendant who is the tax authority (see Supreme Court Decision 84Nu670 of Mar. 12, 1985), since the above determination by the court below did not affect the above determination by the court below, since there was no precedent of transaction on the land near the location of the above real property at the time of imposition of gift tax of this case. Thus, it cannot be seen that the above supplementary method cannot be determined.
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed and all costs of appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
