Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the taxpayer's complaints against the estimated tax assessments were admissible despite the devolutive effect.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The request to annul the tax office decisions was inadmissible; the federal appeal was directed against the appellate judgments.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under the devolutive effect, the challenged lower-instance decisions are replaced by the cantonal court judgments, which remain the proper object of appeal.
