Judgment of the lower court
Seoul High Court Decision 81Gu592 delivered on March 16, 1982
Text
The judgment below is reversed and the case is remanded to Seoul High Court.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
In accordance with Article 188 (1) 1 Item 3 of the Local Tax Act, the term "land on which a lawsuit is pending" and "land on which a lawsuit is pending" under Article 142 (1) 1 subparagraph 6 of the Enforcement Decree of the Local Tax Act and Article 78-3 subparagraph 8 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act, which is excluded from the vacant land on which property tax is heavy pursuant to Article 188 (1) 1 subparagraph 3 of the same Act, refers to only the land, the use of which is prohibited by a court, which is the case of a party member (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 76Nu149 and 82Nu32, Apr. 27, 1982), and on the other hand, the court below's revocation of the defendant's disposition and disposition of the property tax against the plaintiff cannot be erroneous by misapprehending the legal principles on the concept of the vacant land under the Local Tax Act, and there is a reasonable ground for appeal.
Therefore, the judgment of the court below is reversed, and the case is remanded to the Seoul High Court which is the legal ground of the judgment. It is so decided as per Disposition.
