SummaryUnofficial

The General Tax Administration (AGT) lodged an extraordinary appeal on grounds of unconstitutionality against a Supreme Court judgment holding a tax debt under enforcement to be time-barred, invoking the principles of legality and of legal and tax equality. Once the appeal had been admitted, the appellant withdrew it and asked for the withdrawal to be approved. The Court declared the proceedings terminated by withdrawal, noting that withdrawal is free, takes immediate effect and does not require approval.
