each entry, the purport of the whole pleading
2. Whether the part of the lawsuit against the revocation of the disposition No. 2 of this case is legitimate
ex officio, we examine the legitimacy of the lawsuit concerning the revocation claim against the second disposition of this case.
On the other hand, when an administrative disposition is revoked, the disposition becomes null and void, and no longer exists, and a lawsuit seeking revocation against a non-existent administrative disposition shall be deemed unlawful as there is no benefit of lawsuit (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2009Du16879, Apr. 29, 2010).
However, among the lawsuits in this case, the part of the claim for revocation of the second disposition in this case is ex officio on April 28, 2014.
As the Plaintiff revoked the disposition No. 2 of this case, the Plaintiff’s lawsuit of this case No. 2
It is unlawful as there is no benefit to seek the cancellation of the disposition.
3. As to the revocation claim against the first disposition of this case
A. The plaintiff's assertion
1) The Plaintiff was actually supplied with oil from the energy of △△△ in fact and was normally traded by remitting the oil purchase price to its account in its name, and thus, the instant first tax invoice is not a false tax invoice.
2) Even if the first tax invoice of this case is false, the Plaintiff did not know the fact that the oil was supplied from other companies, not the energy of △△△△, and confirmed all the registration of the business operator and whether the petroleum products, such as the deposit passbook in the name of the legal entity, were stored in the name of the business operator while engaging in transactions with the energy of △△△△△, and thus,
3) Therefore, the instant disposition No. 1 should be revoked in an unlawful manner.
B. Relevant statutes
The entries in the attached Table-related statutes are as follows.
C. Determination
1) Whether a tax invoice is false
The meaning that entries in a tax invoice are different from the facts under the Value-Added Tax Act (amended by Act No. 11608, Jan. 1, 2013) refers to cases where the necessary entries in a tax invoice do not coincide with the actual subjects, values, and timing of the goods or services (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 96Nu617, Dec. 10, 1996).
In full view of the overall purport of the statements and arguments as to this case, the energy from △△△ in Seoul Special Metropolitan City from July 201 to August 201, 201 was stored in an oil storage place in the name of △△ in Ulsan Special Metropolitan City, and then imported or purchased oil. The energy from △△ in Busan Special Metropolitan City is confirmed to have closed the business around November 201 at the place of business located in the Seocho-dong in Busan Special Metropolitan City, and it is confirmed that ○○ regional tax office has discontinued the business in its authority. Thus, it is difficult to view that △△ Special Metropolitan City actually supplied oil to the Plaintiff during the first taxable period in 2012. Thus, the first tax invoice of this case that the Plaintiff received from △ Special Metropolitan City is different from the facts provided by Article 16 (1) 1 of the Value-Added Tax Act, and the Plaintiff’s assertion that this part of the entry constitutes a case where necessary entry under Article 17 (2) 2 of the Value-Added Tax Act is not reasonable.
2) Whether the Plaintiff acted in good faith and without fault
An actual supplier and a supplier on a tax invoice may not deduct or refund an input tax amount unless there is any special circumstance that the supplier was unaware of the fact that the supplier was unaware of the fact of misrepresentation of the tax invoice, and that the supplier was not negligent in not knowing the fact of misrepresentation of the name, the person who asserts the deduction or refund of the input tax amount must prove that the supplier was not negligent (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2009Du1808, Jun. 11, 2009).
The plaintiff actually supplied oil and paid the price to the account in the name of the Do governor in order to ensure that it is difficult for the plaintiff to be negligent in not knowing that the first tax invoice in this case was false, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge it. Rather, according to the whole purport of the entries and pleadings in the evidence Nos. 5 and 6 (including the virtual serial number) and the following circumstances, ① according to the shipping slips delivered after the plaintiff was supplied with oil, other companies, other than the Do governor, entered the shipping company, and the place of destination, other than the Do governor, entered the shipping company as the shipping company, and the place of destination. The plaintiff, who received the different shipment slips, appears to have a sufficient reason to suspect that the Do governor was not the actual supplier, and ② in particular, in light of the fact that there was an omission of the signature of the transporter in the above shipment slips, the plaintiff did not know about the fact of the supplier's name in the process of receiving the first tax invoice in this case and being supplied with the oil.
4. Conclusion
Therefore, among the lawsuit of this case, the part concerning the claim for cancellation of the disposition of this case concerning the second disposition of this case is dismissed as it is unlawful, and the remaining claims of the plaintiff are dismissed as it is without merit. Since the part concerning the claim for cancellation of the disposition of this case among the judgment of the court of first instance concerning the claim for cancellation of the disposition of this case concerning the second disposition of this case is unfair in conclusion, the part concerning the claim for cancellation of the disposition of this case concerning the second disposition of this case is revoked and the remaining part of the claim (the part concerning the claim for cancellation of the disposition of this case concerning the first disposition
