Case Number of the immediately preceding lawsuit
Seoul High Court 2017Nu6246 (20 April 20, 2018)
Title
Since there is a tax avoided at the time of title trust, the disposition of gift tax is legitimate, but the disposition of additional tax on no tax return is illegal.
Summary
In addition, since there is no clear purpose in title trust and there is a tax avoided at the time of actual title trust, the imposition of gift tax is legitimate, but the imposition of gift tax is lawful, but it cannot be deemed that the imposition and collection of penalty tax on improper non-return was impossible or significantly difficult, and therefore, it is unjust.
