Key legal question
Whether the appellant is solidarily liable as liquidator for withholding tax claims arising before his mandate but asserted during it.
Extracted holding
Yes. Art. 15(2) VStG covers claims that arise, are asserted, or become due during the liquidator’s administration; assertion during his mandate is sufficient.
Extracted reasoning
The statutory wording is clear and extends liability to pre-existing tax claims once they are claimed during the liquidator’s tenure.
