(1) On October 31, 2004, 2004, 10,126,000 won of corporate tax for 204 years prior to the payment period, and December 31, 2004, 2004, which was notified in December 31, 2004 as the payment period, but did not pay the purchase tax invoice. The fact that ○○ Company received the purchase tax invoice without actual transaction was discovered and was subject to tax investigation from the ○○ Tax Office from December 30, 204 to January 15, 2005, and as a result, it received the notice from the ○○ Tax Office to impose and notify the value-added tax, corporate tax, income tax, retirement income tax, etc. for 202 years prior to the payment period (On the other hand, the amount of income for 2003 years prior to the above tax and the amount of income for 203 years prior to the disposition of income and retirement income accrued to Nonparty 205.

(2) However, the non-party company did not pay it, and accordingly, the tax amount in arrears of the non-party company including additional dues and increased additional dues that occurred until March 13, 2006 reaches the total of KRW 1,188,319,750 (hereinafter referred to as “instant tax claim”) as stated in the attached Table of National Tax Default.

B. Disposition of real property of the non-party company

(1) On January 20, 2005, the non-party company completed the registration procedure for transfer of ownership on the real estate listed in the separate sheet owned by the non-party company (hereinafter referred to as "the real estate of this case") due to the sale on January 10, 2005 (hereinafter referred to as "the sales contract of this case").

(2) Meanwhile, prior to the conclusion of the instant sales contract, the instant real estate was respectively set up two cases of the maximum debt amount of KRW 600,000,000 with the maximum debt amount of KRW 200,000 and the maximum debt amount of KRW 200,000 under the name of the branch of the Industrial Bank of Korea. The Defendant repaid to the branch of the Industrial Bank of Korea of Korea the sum total of KRW 800,386,192, which was 707,00,000,000,000, which was 707,000,000,000 won, and revoked the said collateral on April 29, 2005.

C. Insolvent of the non-party company

(1) When entering into the instant sales contract, the non-party company did not have any specific positive property other than the instant real estate, and the non-party company was a small property with a total of KRW 800,000,000 in addition to the instant tax liability against the Plaintiff, as well as the loans owed to the small and medium enterprise bank.

(2) Meanwhile, the appraised value of the instant real estate at the time of March 21, 2005 is KRW 1,002,814,800.

2. Determination

(a) The existence and scope of preserved claims;

(1) Pursuant to Article 21(1) and (2) of the Framework Act on National Taxes, when income tax, corporate tax, and value-added tax are paid at the end of the taxable period, when income tax, corporate tax, or corporate tax withheld at source is paid at the end of the taxable period (On the other hand, according to Article 192 of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act, where the disposition of income by the tax authority and the notice of change in the amount of income is given, a corporation without source of withholding tax shall be deemed to have paid the income on the date the notice of change in the amount of income is received and thus the liability to pay the income tax withheld at the time is established), and in

According to the above facts, all national taxes other than Nos. 9 through 12 among the national taxes listed in the list of delinquent national taxes in attached Form are established before January 10, 2005, which is the date on which the plaintiff's fraudulent act was established. Thus, it constitutes the creditor's right of revocation under Article 30 of the National Tax Collection Act and Article 406 of the Civil Act.

(2) Meanwhile, in principle, a claim that can be protected by the creditor's right of revocation is established before the act was performed. However, there is high probability that at the time of the sales contract of this case, there has already been legal relations that can be the basis of the establishment of the claim, and that the claim should be established in the near future. In the near future, the possibility of realizing the claim in the near future, the claim can also be the preserved claim of the creditor's right of revocation (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2002Da42957, Nov. 8, 2002). According to the above facts, each national tax claim No. 9 or No. 12 of the national tax in the attached list of national tax delinquency in arrears, which is established after January 10, 2005, which is the date of the establishment of the creditor's fraudulent act. However, since the legal relations which already became the basis of the contract of this case had already occurred, it is highly probable that the lawsuit was established based on the near future legal relations.

(3) In addition, the amount of claims covered by the preservation claim includes the interest or damages for delay incurred from the time of the conclusion of fact-finding proceedings after the fraudulent act, and such legal doctrine also applies to the additional dues and increased additional dues of national taxes. Accordingly, in the lawsuit seeking revocation of the fraudulent act in the instant case, the total amount of the instant claims shall be recognized as the amount of the preserved claim.

B. Establishment of fraudulent act

According to the facts acknowledged above, the non-party company entered into the instant sales contract that sells the instant real estate, which is the only property in excess of the debt, to the defendant. Thus, the instant sales contract becomes a fraudulent act against the plaintiff, barring any special circumstances, and in this case, the intention of the non-party company's death

C. Defendant’s bona fide defense

(1) The Defendant purchased the instant real estate through a normal sales contract, and the Defendant did not know at all at the time of the conclusion of the instant sales contract that the Nonparty was a bona fide beneficiary.

(d) Revocation of fraudulent act and reinstatement;

(1) Furthermore, as to the method and scope of revocation of a fraudulent act, in principle, the sales contract shall be revoked and the subsequent cancellation of the registration of transfer of ownership, etc. shall be ordered. However, in the event that the fraudulent act was conducted in relation to any real estate which was established and the subsequent repayment, etc. was cancelled, order the restoration of the real estate itself would be restored to the portion which was not previously owned by the general creditors, and would result in a violation of fairness and fairness. In such a case, order the above sales contract may be cancelled and the compensation shall be ordered only within the extent of the balance remaining after deducting the secured claim of the right to collateral from the value of the real estate, and the amount of compensation shall be calculated by deducting the secured claim of the right to collateral cancelled from the value of the real estate at the time of the closure of fact-finding proceedings, which is the time of revocation of the fraudulent act (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 98Da41490, Sept. 7, 199).

(2) However, at the time of the conclusion of the instant sales contract, the instant real estate had already been set up two cases with the maximum debt amount of KRW 800,000,000 in total under the name of the Industrial Bank of Korea ○○○○○○ branch of the said Bank. Since the instant sales contract was concluded, the said mortgage was fully revoked due to repayment after the conclusion of the instant sales contract, the scope of revocation of the instant sales contract and the order for compensation for value, the amount of each of the secured debt should be deducted from

(3) Therefore, the sales contract of this case is within the scope of the Plaintiff’s taxation claim against the non-party company, and the fact that the appraisal value of the real estate of this case as of March 21, 2005 was KRW 1,002,814,80 (as of March 21, 2005, the appraisal value of the real estate of this case as of March 21, 2005 was 1,002,814,800. Since there is no evidence to deem that the market value of the real estate of this case particularly increased or decreased after the point of time of the appraisal as of the above appraisal, it is reasonable to view the above appraisal value as the market value at the point of the conclusion of the argument of this case as of the real estate of this case. The above appraisal value is 800,386,192 won as of the time of cancellation of each of the above mortgages (the defendant paid a total of KRW 800,800,0000, the maximum debt amount of each of this case is 80000,80000 won).

In order to obtain a loan of this case from a bank as collateral, the above appraised value was assessed as a relatively higher amount than the market price at the time of the purchase. In addition, since the real estate in this case was considerably deteriorated at the time of purchase, the above appraised value includes the above appraised value equivalent to the above repair cost. Thus, it is unreasonable to determine the scope of revocation of a fraudulent act based on the above appraised value. However, there is no evidence to prove that the above appraised value was evaluated as a higher amount than the market price at the time of the appraisal standard, and all Eul Eul evidence Nos. 8 and 17 submitted by the defendant to prove that the above appraised value was paid the repair cost. Since the above appraised value was made after March 21, 2005, the above appraised value was made after each statement was made after March 21, 2005, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge that the above appraised value included the value equivalent to the repair cost in the above appraised value. Therefore, the above assertion by the defendant is without merit.

In addition, the defendant asserts that the amount of KRW 25,00,000 paid by the defendant to the non-party company should be deducted from the scope of fraudulent act because it constitutes the general property of the non-party company. However, the above amount cannot be deemed as the liability property provided to the joint security of general creditors. Thus, the defendant's assertion is without merit.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the sales contract of January 10, 200, which was concluded between the defendant and the non-party company as to the real estate of this case, shall be revoked within the limit of 202,814,800 won, and the defendant is obligated to pay to the plaintiff 202,814,800 won and damages for delay calculated at the rate of 5% per annum from the day after the day when the judgment of this case became final and conclusive to the day when full payment is complete. Thus, the plaintiff's claim of this case of this case shall be accepted within the scope of the above recognition, and the remaining claims shall be dismissed as they are justified, and the judgment of the court of first instance, as such, is just, and the defendant'
