2. Whether the disposition is proper; and
(a)the master of the plaintiff;
The Plaintiff, while holding office as a local public official of Incheon Metropolitan City, directly cultivated the land Nos. 1 and 2 of this case for at least eight years, and thus, it constitutes the reduction or exemption of capital gains tax under Article 69(1) of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, and thus, the first and second dispositions of this case,
(b) relevant statutes;

C. Determination
(1) The principle of strict interpretation derived from the principle of no taxation without law is applicable not only to the cases that meet the taxation requirements, but also to the cases that meet the requirements for non-taxation and tax reduction and exemption. It is reasonable to expand or analogically interpret the requirements for non-taxation or tax exemption and exemption as favorable to the taxpayers without any justifiable reason, which results in a violation of the principle of no taxation, which is the basic ideology of the tax law (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2005Da19163, May 25, 2006). Therefore, the assertion of farmland should bear the burden of proving it (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 92Nu1893, Jul. 13, 1993).
As to the instant case, evidence, which corresponds to the fact that the Plaintiff resided in the location of the instant land and directly cultivated the instant land for not less than 8 years, there were evidence Nos. 4-1, 2, 7, 8-1, 2, 9-1 through 11, 10-1, 10-2, 10-1 through 24, and 10-2, 10-1 through 24, and 10-1 through 11.
However, considering all the following circumstances, which are acknowledged as comprehensively considering the purport of evidence No. 2-1 of evidence No. 2-1 of evidence No. 5-1 of evidence No. 5-2 of evidence No. 6-1 to evidence No. 4 of evidence No. 5, the Plaintiff passed the public official examination of Grade 9 in Incheon Metropolitan City around 1987 and completed military service, and thereafter served as public officials of Incheon Metropolitan City from the date of completion of military service. In light of the fact that the Plaintiff owned farmland of not less than 20,000 square meters in addition to the land No. 1 and No. 2 of this case, it is difficult to deem that the Plaintiff was engaged in the cultivation of crops or with his own labor for not less than 1/2 of the farming work in the land of this case, the evidence alone submitted by the Plaintiff is insufficient to view the Plaintiff directly cultivated the land of this case for not less than 8 years, and there is no other evidence to
3. Conclusion
If so, the plaintiff's claim for objection case is without merit, so it is decided as identical with the order.
