[Grounds for Recognition] Facts without dispute, Gap 1-9, 13, Eul 1-16, the purport of the whole pleadings
2. Whether each of the dispositions of this case is legitimate
A. The plaintiffs' assertion
(1) The effect of the conciliation is only between the parties to the conciliation, and it does not affect the Defendant, who is the tax authority, and thus, the instant disposition was unlawful on the premise that the shares of KRW 55,569,927 transferred to ○○○○○ was left in common sense.
(2) 조정은 창설적 효력을 가지는 것이고, 비록 2003. 12. 23. 이루어진 이 사건 조정에 "원고 민○서ㆍ민○순이 1985. 2. 28. 유○희에게 자신들의 지분 전부를 각 양도한 행위는 무효임을 확인한다"는 내용이 포함되어 있다 하더라도, 이 사건 조정에 으히ㅏ여 위와 같은 지분양도가 1985. 2. 28.부터 무효임이 확인되는 것이 아니라 이 사건 조정의 성립 당시에 비로소 원고 민○서ㆍ민○순의 위 지분양도가 무효로 되는 법률관계가 창설되는 것이다. 따라서 원고 민○서ㆍ민○순은 이 사건 조정의 성립 당시인 2003. 12. 23.부터 이 사건 회사의 사원 지위를 보유하게 되는 것이고 이에 따라 위 원고들에게 증여의제를 할 수 없음에도, 이와 달리 위 원고들이 민○식이 이 사건 회사를 퇴사한 2000. 4. 10. 이 사건 회사의 사원 지위를 보유하고 있었고 민○식이 퇴사 당시 지급받은 지분환급금이 출자지분에 미치지 못한다고 하여, 위 원고들에게 그 지분율에 상당하는 이익을 증여한 것으로 보고(증여가액 1,303,388,188원), 위 증여가액을 상속재산의 가액에 포함한 피고의 이 사건 처분은 위법하다.
(3) In accordance with Article 28 of the Civil Act, the civil recognition shall be deemed to have died upon the expiration of the period of disappearance. Thus, the starting point of inheritance shall be July 4, 1955, and the assessment of shares subject to inheritance tax shall be based on the market price based on the commencement date of inheritance above. However, it is unlawful to assess the value of the above shares based on August 7, 2002, which was declared missing.
(4) The Defendant assessed a share value of 453,00 won per share by using a supplementary evaluation method with respect to the shares of ○○-type, but when it assumed that the instant company continues to operate the business, the net profit and loss value, which is the value of returning net profit per share to the capital, shall be KRW 15,880, and the market value of shares and refund money as of April 1, 200, which reflects an adequate objective exchange value, shall be recognized as the normal transaction price, and the shares of 5,000 won per share of ○-type Kim○-type shall be also recognized as the market price. However, the instant disposition should be revoked due to the assessment of the value of the unlisted shares based on an administrative convenience method, which does not consider the transaction reality of the unlisted shares.
(5) It is unlawful that the Defendant imposed the total amount of inheritance tax on the Plaintiff’s private sector and private sector alone, without distinguishing and specifying the amount of tax that the Defendant has to pay individually to the Plaintiffs.
(6) At the time of the declaration of disappearance, there were special circumstances in which the Plaintiffs were not able to report and pay the non-listed shares owned by the public-private partnership Type 0 at the time of the declaration of disappearance. Accordingly, the Plaintiffs’ justifiable grounds for not imposing additional tax exist, and thus, the part of imposing additional tax on the Defendant’

C. Determination on this safety defense
(1) The defendant asserts that since the plaintiffs did not go through the procedure of the previous trial on the second disposition of this case, the part seeking revocation of the second disposition of this case in the case where the premise of the absorption theory is based on the main claim and the existence theory of the lawsuit of this case is all unlawful.
However, in a case where a revised disposition is made after a tax disposition was issued, the initial tax disposition loses its independent existence value by absorbing the revised disposition, and thus, it should be determined based on the revised disposition. However, in a case where the grounds for illegality are common and legitimate pre-trial procedures are followed with respect to the initial tax disposition, a taxpayer may institute an administrative litigation seeking revocation without going through the pre-trial procedure (see Supreme Court Decision 98Du18510, Sept. 22, 2000).
In this case, the plaintiffs filed an appeal against the first disposition of this case on the ground that the shares in KRW 5,569,927, which was confirmed as null and void by the mediation of this case, were not shares in the private sector since February 28, 1985. The defendant reduced the amount of gift tax credit from KRW 767,726,267 to KRW 394,429,300, and deducted the amount of gift tax credit from KRW 164,296,429,429, which was deemed null and void by the mediation of this case, and the plaintiffs did not dispute the above grounds for increase.
Therefore, the plaintiffs' assertion of the grounds for illegality of the first and second dispositions of this case is related to the validity of the mediation of this case, and as long as the plaintiffs have gone through the first instance procedure on the first disposition, the plaintiffs can file an administrative lawsuit seeking revocation of the second disposition without going through the second instance procedure. Thus, the defendant's main defense of safety cannot be accepted.
(2) Where a corrective disposition is taken to increase the tax base and amount of tax, the corrective disposition is not a disposition to determine the tax base and amount of tax in the initial disposition, and only the portion exceeding the tax base and amount of tax in the initial disposition is not a disposition to determine the additional tax base and amount of tax, according to the result of the reinvestigation identified, and determine the tax base and amount of tax in the initial disposition as a whole. As such, if the corrective disposition is taken to correct the tax base and amount of tax, the initial disposition first becomes extinct as a matter of course by absorbing it into the corrective disposition, and only the corrective disposition is a subject of litigation (see
Among the instant lawsuits, the part concerning the conjunctive claim seeking revocation of the first disposition is unlawful as it is intended to seek revocation of the extinguished disposition by absorbing the second disposition of this case.
D. Determination on the merits
(1) An administrator of an absentee may, under Article 118 of the Civil Act, maintain the current state of property, namely, the act of preserving the property to the extent that it does not change the nature of the property or the right, use the property or improve the economic value of the property to the extent that it does not change the nature of the property or the right (Article 25 of the Civil Act). Whether to approve an act of using or improving the property without changing the nature of the property or the right or not must be determined in light of social norms (see Supreme Court Decision 79Da2162, Nov. 11, 1980). The permission of an administrator of a court to excess the authority to an administrator is a kind of authorized act, and the administrator is entitled to do a juristic act for an absentee on this basis. Thus, if the administrator does not do so without permission of the court, it shall not take effect against
In light of the fact that the transfer of shares in this case is a disposal act that reduces the civilian's property and does not constitute preservation or improvement (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 69Da1820, Jan. 27, 1970; 94Da39130, Apr. 26, 1996; 94Da39130, Apr. 26, 1996). While the capital increase in this case increases the company's property, it constitutes a disposal act because the shares in the private sector are reduced or partially transferred, and the capital increase in this case constitutes a disposal act as it transfers the whole shares in the private sector. In light of the fact that the private sector's custodian transfers the shares in this case without the court's permission, the transfer of shares in this case, capital increase, and capital decrease are all null and void. In addition, since the effect of the conciliation does not extend to the private sector's public interest, but the time when the conciliation is established after the formation of the tax obligation in this case.
As above, if 67.49% of the shares of the private-use consciousness as of August 7, 2002, which is the date of adjudication of disappearance (i.e., the addition, etc. to the taxable value of inherited property under the premise that the change in the above shares is valid), the reasonable amount of inheritance tax to be paid by the plaintiffs is as shown in the attached Form. If the above amount exceeds the respective tax amount imposed by the defendant against the plaintiffs in this case, the disposition of this case is legitimate as a result, and the plaintiffs' assertion on the different premise is without merit.
(2) Article 1(1) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act provides that the taxable amount of inheritance taxes shall be calculated on the basis of the date of adjudication of disappearance in cases where inheritance commences due to adjudication of disappearance. Therefore, the Plaintiffs’ assertion that the period of disappearance expires is without merit.
(3) Pursuant to Articles 60 and 63 of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act and Articles 49, 54, 55, and 56 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act, the Defendant assessed the weighted average net profit and loss amount and the net asset value per share of the instant company for the last three years per share of the instant company, and calculated the value per share of the instant equity based on the larger amount. The Defendant’s calculation method is lawful based on the relevant statute, and the Plaintiffs’ assertion that caused such error is difficult to accept.
(4) According to the statements in Section B 11-16 (including paper numbers) and the testimony of ○○○ Cooperative witness, the Defendant issued the instant disposition by using the National Tax Computer Network; the Defendant printed out the inheritance tax notice by means of the aforementioned computer network; the “detailed statement of calculation of the inheritance tax base and the amount of tax; and the list of co-inheritors paid by inheritor and co-inheritors; and the Defendant can recognize the fact that the notice was sent to the Plaintiffs by registered mail.
Therefore, the defendant should be deemed to have made the disposition of this case by distinguishing and specifying the amount of tax to be individually paid to the plaintiffs. Therefore, the other plaintiffs' assertion is not accepted.
(5) In order to facilitate the exercise of taxation rights and the realization of tax claims, additional tax under tax law is an administrative sanction imposed under the conditions as prescribed by individual tax law in cases where a taxpayer violates various duties, such as a return and tax payment, without justifiable grounds, and the taxpayer’s intent or negligence is not considered. On the other hand, such a sanction cannot be imposed in cases where a taxpayer has justifiable grounds, such as where there are circumstances where it is reasonable to present it, or where it is unreasonable for the taxpayer to expect the performance of his/her duties to do so, or where it is unreasonable for him/her to do so (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2003Du13632, Jan. 27, 2005).
According to the aforementioned evidence and the purport of the entire pleadings, Plaintiff ○ filed a petition with the Seoul Family Court for adjudication of disappearance on September 2001, 2001, and Plaintiff ○○○ and ○○○○, as the guarantor, signed and sealed the said request as the guarantor. Plaintiff ○○ and ○○○, as the guarantor, filed a lawsuit with the Seoul District Court on October 18, 2001 to seek confirmation of invalidity of a share transfer, etc., and filed a lawsuit on January 28, 2003 with Plaintiff ○, ○○, Civil Service, Civil Service, and ○○, etc. as the Defendant on January 28, 2003.
However, Article 65(1) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act and Article 60 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act stipulate the method of evaluation on the premise that the rights during a lawsuit are also included in inherited property. Thus, if the plaintiffs filed a lawsuit seeking confirmation of invalidity of transfer of shares at the time of filing an inheritance tax return or filed a claim for confirmation of invalidity of transfer of shares, etc., the above transfer should be reported as inherited property. Thus, the reasons why the above rights have not been confirmed at the time of filing an inheritance tax return cannot be deemed as having justifiable reasons for filing a non-report (see Supreme Court Decision 2004Du3625, Aug. 24, 20
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiffs' primary claims and the conjunctive claims seeking revocation of the disposition of imposition of inheritance tax belonging to the year 2002 on October 1, 2007 are all dismissed as they are without merit. The part of the conjunctive claims seeking revocation of the disposition of imposition of inheritance tax belonging to the year 2002 among the lawsuits of this case is unlawful, and thus it is so decided as per Disposition.
