Omnilex summary

The Ticino Administrative Court dealt with an appeal concerning a parish tax of CHF 155 for 1989. After the parish communicated that it was withdrawing its appeals in light of legislative changes, the court struck the appeal from the docket. It ordered that no court fees or expenses be charged, but treated the withdrawal as defeat for costs purposes and awarded CHF 100 in party compensation to the respondent.

Omnilex headnote

Art. 273 vLT; desistance in administrative proceedings and allocation of costs. Where an appellant withdraws the appeal, the court strikes the matter from the roll. For the purposes of party compensation, the withdrawal is assimilated to defeat; however, in the absence of special circumstances, no court fees or costs need be levied. The decision on costs may therefore distinguish between public charges and compensatory costs (consid. implicit).
