2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful
A. The parties' assertion
(1) On September 25, 2001, the Plaintiff sold the instant real estate to Ma○○, and thereafter, Ma○○ had sold the instant real estate to Ma○○, so the registration of ownership transfer was directly transferred from the Plaintiff to Ma○○, by the method of intermediate omission registration.

(A) Around July 2001, the Plaintiff, an appraiser, jointly acquired ○○ Construction Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “○○ Construction”) for operating a real estate development project with Ison, for a total amount of KRW 500 million.

(B) In the process of borrowing the above Chapter 3 of this Promissory Notes, this paper prepared a false contract agreement between ○○ Construction and ○○ Comprehensive Construction, and the said Chapter 3 of this Promissory Notes was faced with a crisis due to the failure of ○○○○○ to take the responsibility for each of the said Promissory Notes, thereby making it difficult for the Plaintiff and the representative director of ○○ Construction to be exempted from criminal liability. While referring to the issue of Chapter 3 of the said Promissory Notes, I expressed to the effect that if ○○○ transfers all of the rights to dispose of each of the said real estate to the Plaintiff himself/herself, I would like to resolve such difficulties as the Plaintiff’s above. The Plaintiff intended to escape from the above crisis and to accept the above proposal of ○○○○’s above.
(C) Around September 25, 2001, the Plaintiff concluded a sales contract with the Maduk, stating that there is a loan obligation of KRW 600 million with respect to each of the above real estate, and that there is a default of acquisition tax of KRW 28,760,00,000, and entered into the said sales contract with the Maddong to acquire the above loan obligation and the above delinquent acquisition tax in lieu of the payment of the above sales amount, and transferred the entire right to dispose of the above real estate to the Maddong. After that, the Maduk had paid part of the interest on the above loan in the name of ○○ Construction.

However, in consideration of the fact that the sales contract in question is unregistered resale, the seller as the Plaintiff, entered ○○○ as the Plaintiff’s agent, and affixed ○○○○○○’s seal on the seal of ○○○○○. The ○○○ received the remainder of the sales contract, excluding the above loan obligations, from a ○○○○, and paid the said delinquent acquisition tax related to the instant real estate.
(4) Plaintiff’s report of capital gains tax
(A) In order to look at the convenience of ○○’s unregistered resale, the Plaintiff made a voluntary report of capital gains tax as if the instant real estate was transferred from the Plaintiff to ○○○○ as seen earlier, with the belief that the Plaintiff would not cause any problem of capital gains tax in relation to the report of capital gains tax regarding the instant sales contract.
(B) After purchasing the instant real estate as above, the tax investigation was conducted on April 25, 2005 by stating that the purchase price of the instant real estate on a fixed date is KRW 1,015,00,000 in the process of selling it to another person and reporting the transfer income tax.
(C) On September 2005, the Plaintiff revealed that it is not the Plaintiff, but the seller of the instant sales contract in the process of the said tax investigation, but was unable to disclose it by his refusal to cooperate with ○○ and Madon. On October 28, 2005, the Plaintiff filed a lawsuit against Madon, Seoul Central District Court 2005Gahap97618 against Madon in order to secure data relating to the unregistered resale of Madon, and then withdrawn the lawsuit thereafter.

In the course of investigation, Maduk stated to the effect that he/she acquired the real estate of this case from the Plaintiff during his/her investigative process, and that he/she reselled the instant real estate to ○○○.

D. Determination
(5) The imposition of capital gains tax on the first seller on the premise that the purchaser of the real estate acquired the ownership by the intermediate registration method is illegal (see Supreme Court Decision 87Nu58, May 12, 198). However, the Plaintiff filed a report on capital gains tax by directly selling the real estate to the ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○’s transfer of the real estate in the name of the ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○, which was not a party to a civil lawsuit against the ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○.
Therefore, the disposition of this case based on the premise that the Plaintiff is the actual seller of the sales contract of this case is unlawful.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the disposition of this case shall be revoked, and the plaintiff's claim of this case shall be accepted due to its reasons, and the judgment of the court of first instance shall be revoked and the disposition of this case shall be revoked and it is so decided as per Disposition.
