Tax revision refused: inadvertence had no effect on outcome

ATA/158/1997Court of Justice / Administrative ChamberMar 4, 1997Dismissed

Open source

Summary

In a tax revision matter concerning the deduction of travel expenses, the court held that an inadvertence by the TA existed but had no bearing on the legal solution. Because the error was not outcome-determinative, the request for revision was rejected.

Regest

LCP. 21 al. 2 lit. o; revision based on inadvertence in a tax assessment or decision is admissible only if the alleged error is relevant to the dispositive outcome. An accidental omission or misstatement that does not alter the legally correct assessment does not constitute a revision ground. The decisive criterion is not the mere existence of a clerical or factual oversight, but its causal significance for the result (consid. unspecified).
