Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Gran Canaria therapy travel and accommodation costs were deductible medical expenses
Extrahierter Entscheid
The claimed costs were not proven to be medically necessary for treatment or preservation/restoration of health, so the deduction could be denied.
Extrahierte Begründung
The taxpayer bore the burden of proving the facts reducing tax. The available medical records did not show that swimming, sand running, or aquajogging at the sea were medically necessary, and the court could not substitute its own medical assessment.
